More specifically..... the Open Access Repository Junction "Discovery" APIs use the "Accept" header to determine the content type of the returned data, and it would be sensible to remain consistent: "Accept" defines the "mime-type" (application/xml, text/plain, etc...) "Pragma:X-Packaging" then defines the package format for the content (METSDSpaceSIP, METSOARJ, ORE, RDFa, etc) .... I suggest Pragma:X-Packaging, as one currently uses an 'X-Packaging' element in the http request header object when *posting* a SWORD deposit to define the packaging type of the content. -- Ian Stuart.
