Hi,
I've written a module for parsing and constructing OpenURLs (http://library.caltech.edu/openurl/) within the URI framework:
http://santos.ecs.soton.ac.uk/URI-openurl-0.1.tar.gz
OpenURL is not a URI format per-se, but a means of transporting structured metadata via URIs (e.g. http://host/path?openurl_query).
As the proposed NISO specs have an abstraction layer ("entities") I have built support for these within URI by casting between different entity classes, all of which are subclasses of URI::openurl, which in turn is a subclass of _server. This allows the construction of OpenURLs through methods, rather than hierarchical hash-trees. My implementation of this may be bad (the only way I could think to get around URI's single-scalar storage), so would appreciate any comments!
Oooh, shiny! I just needed to look at this too!
I'm getting connection refused from that URL though. Is it alive yet?
