Dear list members,
please forgive my ignorance but I'd like to check back with the list
whether I've understood the recent discussion (and its implications
for my own use case) correctly.
I've recently added simple DC output to the refbase SRU server.
Previously, only MODS was supported in the refbase SRU
searchRetrieveResponse (<http://sru.refbase.net/>) but the SRU
clients we're dealing with (mainly bibliographic desktop
applications such as Sente, Bookends or Papers for the Mac)
generally only recognize Dublin Core in the searchRetrieveResponse.
However, I'd like to include PRISM elements together with the simple
DC metadata elements since this would make it much easier for our
SRU client apps (or their users tweaking the relevant import
filters) to extract the metadata information.
Judging from the recent discussion in this thread, am I right that
the following SRU response would be invalid since it includes non-DC
elements (?):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="srwdc2html.xsl"?>

Do I understand you correctly, that I could return an SRU response
similar to the above if I'd be using the 'dcx' prefix and its
proper name space instead?
What would be the exact name space URI (and the value for the
'recordSchema' element) for the DCX schema?

I tried to find out more about DCX but it seems that the main info
page is dead:
<http://www.kb.nl/persons/theo/dcx>
I appreciate any help you can provide or any pointers to up-to-date
information about DCX.
Thanks!
Matthias
