Hi Michael,
I produced a WIKI page on this topic, in the absence of more official
documentation:
https://gabriel.lse.ac.uk/twiki/bin/view/Projects/WayfLess. It's based
on a fair amount of experimentation, and I think you're basically on the
right track. However, the ones I've been constructing (which were
initially set up with help from eduserv technical staff before, I think,
the guide was published) are slightly different and don't contain the
ath_dspid at all. So you might be able to drop it entirely. Oddly, the
URLs we've been using have a different double identification: ours give
a second ID for the LSE rather than a second ID for the resource.
Let me know if this page is helpful, or if you have any amendments you
would suggest based on your experience.
Cheers,
Simon
