ONE-2 partners are in process of loading this onto their servers. The
server at the Nat. Lib of Norway has this loaded already, we have
modified the configuration file of our ICONE client to be to this
specification, and other ONE-2 partners are following suit with their
applications. Since the ONE-2 project is now entering a test phase, it is
a bit premature to open the software to the outside world.

In addition, the project timescales do not permit a time factor whereby
opening to the ZIG at large and waiting/hoping for general concensus is
feasible - the idea of this was opened at the ZIG in the summer, and the 
project did gratefully receive some constructive feedback from ZIG folk.
