Hi,

Marcel, Fridolyn
BibLibre did an enhancement to z3950 target so that user can choose an
xslt for the results.
We would be interested in seeing what was done, you can take a look there :
http://git.biblibre.com/?p=koha;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/origin/wip/limoges/MT4735
It should enable the libraries to add more sources and take advantage of
xslt to import those entries into their own catalogue.

I am quite curious about your developments Marcel.
Hope that helps.
