Hi Steve:

DWell is a configuration of the Longwell metadata faceted browser
developed by the SIMILE project at MIT (http://simile.mit.edu).

The basic way the 2 systems interoperate is described at:

http://simile.mit.edu/wiki/Dwell

Essentially, you harvest the DSpace metadata via OAI, transform it into
the RDF format Dwell wants, and then load into a Longwell instance (it's
own web server).

Let me know if you have any further questions. DWell is not under active
development at the moment (since the SIMILE project ended), but the
source is available and it ought to work with recent versions of DSpace
fairly well.

Thanks,

Richard Rodgers
