New DSpace OAI-PMH Harvester doesn't support OAI gateways that do not use "sets"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DS-365
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-365
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: DSpace API, JSPUI, XMLUI
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Mark Diggory


Seems like a basic obvious capability of OAI to have gateways that may not have 
sets available.  I think that the harvester should support such a basic 
features/option.

Right now via the interface, it appears that I need to have Sets just to use 
the Harvester. To clarify the standard:

http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotocol.html#ListSets

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<OAI-PMH xmlns="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/"; 
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/
         http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/OAI-PMH.xsd";>
  <responseDate>2001-06-01T19:20:30Z</responseDate> 
  <request verb="ListSets">
           http://purl.org/alcme/etdcat/servlet/OAIHandler</request>
  <error code="noSetHierarchy">This repository does not 
         support sets</error>
</OAI-PMH>

This should be detectable on the OAI target during verification, likewise, one 
should be able to not select a set regardless so that the entire OAI gateway is 
Harvested without needing to add each set individually just to get the entire 
gateway.
