Hi Florian, Just to +1 what Ralf said: the swordapp.org website is the best place to start for resources. Depending on what version of the spec you are after, you may find these two pages in particular useful: SWORDv1: http://swordapp.org/sword-v1/the-specification/ SWORDv2: http://swordapp.org/

Hi Mark, Sorry, I had misunderstood. Something like the DSpaceMetsProfile should be sufficiently detailed that if a server says it supports it the client should know what to send. However, in my opinion, the practice hasn't matched the theory. The DSpaceMetsProfile expects the metadata to be M

Hi Robin, I understand the protocol, it's very clear, but what I am asking is, is there a list somewhere of package formats, and their internal structures (e.g., what metadata formats are allowed, how are relationships between multipart objects like a thesis and its two supplemental files descr

Hi Mark, What you are after is the Service Document. The Sword spec describes a Service Document that the server should provide when requested, to advertise amongst other things, what package formats it supports. So the typical conversation would go... Client - "Please send me your Service Doc

Marco, Thanks for the pointer to your blog, I'll take a look. I realize that SWORD is just a transfer protocol, and that the packaging formats are independent of the protocol (in the same way that metadata formats are independent of OAI-PMH), but I am trying to determine the degree to which the

Hi Mark, I have been using SWORDv2 with DSpace. SWORD is just a transfer protocol, it doesn't really matter what type of package you send with it, as long as the receiving SWORD server understands how to handle it. I used DSpace METS SIP, simple zip files, and binary files because the DSpace

Hi, Sorry for this second n00b question to the list in less than a few weeks. Is there any public documentation on SWORD2 packaging formats? The profile uses the DSpace METS SIP and BagIt as examples. I assume that the DSpace packaging format is the one described at https://wiki.duraspace.org/
