Hi Eric, I don't see CDS Invenio listed [1]. It's an institutional repository system developed at CERN. It's an impressive piece of software, but for one reason or another doesn't seem to get much attention. I intend to give a lightning talk on it in Asheville in February. --jay [1] http://cdswa

I agree with Godmar: it looks like (some) change happened to tictocs between my original wget download and the one I downloaded after I changed my browser settings. It appears Godmar is not going nuts (or at least this issue is not due to him going nuts!) ;-) Viewing the file http://cuvier.cist

Eric, the Kete project is another one you might want to add to your list. It's intended to let libraries and archives create 'community repositories' with user-generated content, and it was started by the Horowhenua Library Trust, the same organisation that sponsored Koha. The URL is: http://kete.

Any thoughts on making this list something more dynamic, web 2.0ish? I think the list could be even more useful if one could do some sort of faceted search on the information. Looking at the not-viable list it seems that many of the entries were considered not viable due to lack of support.
