#126 Broken link on Harvest with OAI-PMH page
The link to provide admin users with the collection of records does not have any arguments passing through to EdRepo, so user will have errors if they do not know the arguments to pass. There is not a list of arguments that admin users can pass into this page, so this link is almost useless to users who do not know the arguments. I would suggest changing the link to have the argument in it, and then create more links for each argument, or create a list of arguments users can specify in the URL bar after they hit the link.

Hi,
We should discuss this. Here are the basics:
OAI-PMH is a protocol for exchanging metadata - google it and read about it. I'm guessing that you're looking at the code that provides this for EdRepo. The basic idea is that part of EdRepo periodically extracts metadata from the database of learning activities (the metadata being things like name of the activity, author, etc - think of a library catalog). The data then gets formatted according to the OAI-PMH standard (it's an XML file) and placed in a web accessible location. This data can then be harvested by some interested external party. For example, the ensemble project (computingportal.org) harvests this data from swenet.org. Then once Ensemble has the data, it can make swenet resources visible on the Ensemble site.
