GPL.* Apparently not compatible with Plone 3. To the developer(s) of either:

a) a successful fix, bringing compatibility with Plone 3

or

b) a suitably simple alternative product/approach

I can offer:

-- at least: kudos! Appropriate credit, on each page that uses the solution (I expect there will be hits aplenty, as our site is heavily browsed in connection with the UK Research Assessment Exercise)

-- at most: a small bounty (but don't get too excited; financially, we're already way over budget on this particular project).

Thanks for any help/advice...

Regards
Graham Perrin

==========
Background
==========

Our University's ePrints open access repository offers -- for each individual -- content such as

<http://eprints.brighton.ac.uk/view/people/ H.J.Rush=40brighton.ac.uk.include> <http://eprints.brighton.ac.uk/view/people/ M.G.Hobday=40brighton.ac.uk.include>

-- and source content will change *often*.

Some people suggested the windowZ product but for this type of content, windowZ is not the solution.

For _groups_, the results are already nicely styled e.g.
<http://eprints.brighton.ac.uk/view/groups/AM5.html> but for _individuals_, I don't expect the ePrints system configuration to start delivering styled results.

(A future upgrade to ePrints 3 should offer RSS etc., but our immediate wish is to have content such as <http://eprints.brighton.ac.uk/view/people/ H.J.Rush=40brighton.ac.uk.include> presented within our Plone site.)
