Hi guys,

this is a follow-up to an earlier announcement on this list.
We've now 
completed the initial setup of our Z/SRU targets for several
open 
content sites, specifically the Open Content Alliance,
Wikipedia, DMOZ, 
and Project Gutenberg. Our hope is that exposing these
resources through 
open information retrieval protocols will allow libraries
and others to 
more easily integrate them into applications, portals, and
internet sites.

More details are available at http://www.index
data.dk/opencontent/ .

To keep people abreast of new developments, and to stimulate
discussion 
about the use and sharing of open content resources in this
way, we have 
created a new mailing list. Signup information at 
http://lists.indexdata.dk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ocl
ist/ . We will be 
using this list to announce the availablility of new
targets, changes to 
setups, etc.

We sincerely hope that you will find these resources useful,
and that 
you'll discover new ways to integrate this exciting content
into the way 
you deliver services to your users.

All the best,

--Sebastian
