Steve,

Thanks for the reply, that does solve part of the problem.  This 
improves the situation in that now the content can be accessed by direct 
URL without authentication being triggered however the intermediate page 
"Datastream Profile View" triggers the auth request so a user would only 
be able to get to the content if they could figure out the direct URL to 
the content.  From your description of the problem, and reading 
FCREPO-703 it appears you guys have addressed this by shifting the 
implementation to use API-A calls for Profile View so this is fully 
resolved in the next release?  Thanks for the description that helped a 
lot in making sense of the issue.
