--- Comment #11 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
While I see the advantage of using PIDs (I use them in DSpace and other GLAM
systems), after browsing these patches, I don't see the advantages of adding
these patches.

What are you trying to achieve here?

Personally, I think that it would be better to add a plugin to the
authority/biblio/item records and allow you to mint PIDs while cataloguing.
That's how most systems I've used have worked.

That said, sometimes you want to batch mint PIDs, but I think that would be up
to the entity doing the batch work. I don't see why we'd need anything special
for that in Koha.

Or are you trying to create a local Koha PID minting service? If that's the
case, I think storing the data in MARC fields is not a wise direction. It would
be better to have a Koha PID lookup table mapping the PID to the record, so
that PID resolution could be handled that way.
