Hello,

We also have a reorganized version of the OCLC SRW/U ported into the  
the DSpace 1.5 build system which we are planning to deploy on  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and other DSpace instances at MIT Libraries. We've made it  
available to the public. The code is no different than the OCLC  
release for 1.4.2, it simply uses Maven to be built rather than Ant.  
The GPL third party jars only applied to the SRW/U's other driver  
implementations (which it originally shipped inside the distribution)  
those implementations are removed from this version and thus the  
dependencies are not required.

See the following for source:
http://libstaff.mit.edu/svn/repos/projects/dspace-addons/dspace-srw/ 
trunk/
