We have been working on a similar issue here. I assume you mean that you want a permanent link to the Deutsche Bibliothek's own naming repository rather than using handle.net? We have been able to do that by making changes in DSpace 1.5 to HandleManager.java and writing some custom code to interface to our own naming repository. It's a bit ugly, but not as bad as some people have made it out to be. I could send you a copy of what we have done if you are interested. -- Gary McGath Digital Library Software Engineer Harvard University Library Office for Information Systems http://hul.harvard.edu/~gary/index.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
