It seems a lot of questions are about ONIX vs OPDS. Very different use case. ONIX is about transporting metadata from publisher to retailer.

@Hadrien
OPDS is about making life easier for the user. This means easier browsing in a catalog, easier way to redownload your content (bookshelf).

@Hadrien Why not just add an special acquisition for ONIX file, just like EPUB3 could contain ONIX file? An OPDS Catalog for partners.

@Hadrien
@wastemobile you want to transport ONIX metadata in OPDS ? You could already do that, it's just a link or an external namespace
wastemobile
@wastemobile
@Hadrien Yes, we are trying that way. Make a special bookshelf for B2B partner, with different account type.

@Hadrien
@wastemobile no need for a different bookshelf or OPDS feed, just include a link@rel="alternate" in an entry with the mimetype for ONIX

@wastemobile
@Hadrien Thanks. We also work on generating proactive notification when product status change, a lot of things to do...XD
