This is my first post to this list. I've spent the last week or so trying, and failing, to get SWORD working with my current institution's installation of Intralibrary, which claims compliance with SWORD v1.3<http://knowledge.intrallect.com/manuals/intralibrary/3.7/integration_guide.html#file_transfer> (no lower, no higher, just 1.3) and recommends using the SWORD client 1.1, which fails miserably (GUI and command-line). I've today tried the SWORD PHP library<https://github.com/swordapp/swordapp-php-library> of Stuart Lewis with Intralibrary, and I get a 500 error with the server for the test script provided (suitably configured for Intralibrary), which of course could be anything. I'm not after diagnosing this error, instead my request is:
Is there an open SWORD-compliant repository on which I can test the PHP library? The README on the library github repo says: " In order to use this test script you will need a username and password for a SWORD repository. If you don't have one, you can sign up for one at http://dspace.swordapp.org/jspui/register"; However, that domain gives a DNS error, perhaps unsurprising as the README is over 3 years old, as is the code. If the PHP library works ok on another repository then the problem resides in Intralibrary; else the problem is with the PHP library. I've been in the 'learning object repository game' for many years, on and off, in particular running Intralibrary installations as admin. I remember attending an Intrallect conference in Edinburgh 4 or 5 years ago, when SWORD was touted as the next big thing offering effortless repository deposition. Since the initial enthusiasm the protocol appears to have dropped out of favour. Could folk here tell me if SWORD is still in development and use, or if it's just sooooo noughties, my dear? and quietly dying away? That there's no SWORD PHP code more recent than 2011, or Java code more recent than 2012, indicates that it might be going out of use.
