FeedbooksのHadrien氏と 台湾の @wastemobile さんのOPDSについてのやりとり。
It seems a lot of questions are about ONIX vs OPDS. Very different use case. ONIX is about transporting metadata from publisher to retailer.
2012-02-23 19:38:13OPDS is about making life easier for the user. This means easier browsing in a catalog, easier way to redownload your content (bookshelf).
2012-02-23 19:42:13@Hadrien Why not just add an special acquisition for ONIX file, just like EPUB3 could contain ONIX file? An OPDS Catalog for partners.
2012-02-23 19:49:34@wastemobile you want to transport ONIX metadata in OPDS ? You could already do that, it's just a link or an external namespace
2012-02-23 19:50:50@Hadrien Yes, we are trying that way. Make a special bookshelf for B2B partner, with different account type.
2012-02-23 19:54:33@wastemobile no need for a different bookshelf or OPDS feed, just include a link@rel="alternate" in an entry with the mimetype for ONIX
2012-02-23 19:55:24@wastemobile mail me if you want my advices, I can probably help
2012-02-23 19:59:27@Hadrien Thanks. We also work on generating proactive notification when product status change, a lot of things to do...XD
