http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12252 --- Comment #46 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- (In reply to Gaetan Boisson from comment #38)
Adding a note to the OAI-PMH preference so that it reads like the following would be ok for me:
able/disable Koha's OAI-PMH server. The data exposed will not include items hidden through the OpacHiddenItems system preference, but everything else will be available for harvest. If you need to hide some data, look into extended mode and the OAI-PMH:ConfFile system preference.
(It does look to me as enabling extended mode with a configuration file allowing only one type of metadata that would result from a custom xslt removing the confidential fields would be enough.)
I liked this idea from Gaetan. But thinking about it more I am still torn: This is a change in behaviour. People might have built things assuming the item data is not there and might suddenly expose more data, than they wanted to. I know that Jonathan is probably right in that this was initially a regression from bug 5579, but we missed to fix this for a really long time now :( Would it be really bad to make the items a configuration option? I know some people hate new prefs... but the Web Services tab still has plenty of room... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
