Learning Registry currently support SWORD V1 deposit of metadata. It's not well tested, but it's available on the various test nodes. We can provide details if anyone wants to give it a try.
We're planning to work with Kathi over the next bit to get SWORD 2 working.

Jumping in -- I wanted to quickly second the idea of SWORD metadata deposit into Learning Registry at the same time as SWORD deposit of the content into a repository. That is an approach that we are exploring for authors creating resources for Connexions (cnx.org) and other open repositories (open to the public for deposit). Because many repositories will have OAI-PMH feeds also, some duplication will occur, but some metadata/paradata that deposit tools have may superset or enhance the metadata through the OAI feed.I would be interested in hearing from others implementing SWORD clients and services.Kathi--On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 5:17 AM, Sheppard, Nick <[log in to unmask]> wrote:
We don't like uploading...but if there was an easy way for ukoer authors to push their metadata directly into the LR from their desktop via SWORD that would be good!

Thankfully I know alittle bit about this, so perhaps whilst here can facilitate it.If you'd like some content adding to the LR, please reply to thisemail (to the list, not directly to me) with a URL of an RSS Feed /OAI Feed.If you insist on sending an OPML Feed i'll look at it, but definitely last.For ref, if the same item appears in multiple feeds, that's not a problem.PatTo view the terms under which this email is distributed, please go to http://disclaimer.leedsmet.ac.uk/email.htm
