[Ig-fedora] Fedora in the CLARIN infrastructure

[Felix Helfer]

Hi David,

thank you for detailed response!

I'm replying on behalf of Thomas here to confirm that we, the Leipzig 
centre, will test the Fedora 6 deployment and migration soon. The 
OAI-PMH interface not making it into the initial release is unfortunate, 
but we are glad to hear that it is considered as an upcoming supported 
module. Meanwhile, the testing should give us some valuable insight into 
both the migration process and the new repository itself. We will report 
back to you as soon as we have some initial results!

Best regards,
Felix
