Hi Stephen
We have not yet released any open source code for Intute; we are looking at what we can make available but as yet have no firm plans or dates.
Our UK repository search service work (delivered in partnership with UKOLN and SHERPA) is about start its next phase and the intention is that we take a proactive approach to dissemination. We should be in a position very soon to start giving regular updates on what is available. In meantime if you have any specific questions or requests let me know and I'll put you in touch the right person from our technical team.

Hiya,
I've had a pretty good look at Intute and am impressed. What I am
wondering, though, is whether they have released any open source code. I
wasn't able to find any on the site. If anyone knows, please send a note.
