Hi I discovered today OPDS (Open Publication Distribution System) which is a XML feed norm to spread e-books catalogs. You may get more information at: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/OPDS This seems to be pretty new but looks to be an interesting initiative. I developed a straightforward XML feed for Kiwix content manager; this works but using standards is often a better approach than re-inventing the wheel (no idea why exactly I did not heard about that at the time I was working on my own XML feed system). Does someone have information/know-how/feedback about OPDS?
