Thanks, Ralph.  Appreciated.

Yes.  A couple of other things about the existing Bath profile came up
when I was figuring out the dark corners of the SRW/CQL version, as
you'll have seen -- e.g. why there are both Author and Creator
searches when they both use the same atrributes.  It'll be interesting
to see what the Bath people have to say about this.

Er.  I have to admit to not really following this (due, I'm sure to my
inadequate understanding of libraries rather than any deficiency in
your explanation).  Does it basically mean that I can remove the note
about ISSN vs. ISBN support?  (Basically, just tell me what to do and
I'll do it :-)

Thanks for that.  Only one quibble: the link text is "Bath Profile in
CQL", whereas it should really be either "Bath Profile for SRW" (if
it's describing the whole document) or, more likely, "Bath Context
Set".

:-)

I'll be glad to -- I just wanted to get a bit of informed feedback
from this list before I go ploughing in feet first.  Does anyone have
anything to say other than "It's nice?" :-)  [Not that I don't enjoy
being told that it's nice!]

I notice that you tweaked the Bath URL accordingly!  OK, that's fine
by me: I have changed the URI in the profile document itself to
reflect what the MA says it is.
