METS is not included in the list because nobody has requested it. If someon requests it (you, for example) it will be added.

However if nobody requests it then I don't see any point in gratuitiously adding it. I'm not aware of any projects using METS as an SRU record format.

Subject: METS as record format

Hello,

Has anyone out there explored using METS as the return record format
for SRU/W? I was a little surprised not to see it listed in the
website ...
