Oh grand, I'll take a peak at those issues in the coming days and see if
there is anything else useful I could add.

>From issues it sounded like you were doing a few thousand emails to
authors, which we could manage with a bit of co-ordination (technically,
you could do it via the API without consulting but it would be quite
innefficient for us) e.g let us know what you want requested in a
spreadsheet, and then we'll get it up the same day and have messages sent.
If you simply wanted to run 224k DOI's to see if they were available,
that's a pretty light lift, so I wouldn't worry about that (just hit the
API when you fancy).

We might have some spare time, shall we try and have a 30 minute chat by
phone (or similar) and try to hammer something out? If that makes sense see
if there a time that works for you here: doodle.com/joemcarthur.
