[pycsw-devel] [vote] RFC2 - OGC OpenSearch Geo/Time support

[Adrià Mercader]

Hi Angelos,

This looks really good, thanks for the thorough RFC.

A couple of quick questions:

* In terms of external endpoint, how coupled is OpenSearch to CSW?
Basically if a client, say the Firefox search bar, would like to integrate
search results why should it need a URL like

http://localhost/pycsw/csw.py?mode=opensearch&service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetRecords&q=SearchTerm

Rather than just

http://localhost/pycsw/opensearch.py?q=SearchTerm

I can see how the second option may involve a more complex implementation.

* Will the Atom results contain a link to the full metadata document? And
if so will you be able to decide the format of these documents like in a
normal CSW call? Eg with an outputSchema parameter

These are just minor questions, other than that big +1, and happy to see it
will get deployed in data.gov
