We are trying to get some information about an XML harvester being
developed by Innovative Interfaces. The Innovative site describes
the new product as:

"The XML Harvester maps EAD records into MARC format and allows for loading
directly into the database" but does not provide any further information.

We are starting to use XMetal for encoding our finding aids and would like
to know more about the technical specifications of the XML harvester.  For
example, does it work with those tags that have MARC encoding attributes
or primarily with the eadheader?

We'd appreciate any information or leads.
