Subject: [RAS] ISNI data from RePEc
Message-ID: <20130506135704.GA24604@openlib.org>


  Andrew,

  I'm submitting a second file to you

mamf at vebag:~/opt/isni$ ls -lt
total 302296
-rw-r--r-- 1 mamf mamf   2840243 May  6 13:38 AuthorClaim_isni.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 mamf mamf 306703943 May  6 03:47 RePEc_isni.txt

  This has data from the RePEc Author Service (RAS). I created this is 
  1999 to provide author claiming for RePEc. Christian Zimmermann
  has been running it from many years, most recently from the Federal
  Reserve Bank in St. Louis. 

  There are some, very few registrants in both AuthorClaim and
  RAS. My intention is to automatically detect this and then send you
  a combined file that would contain the AuthorClaim recorrd only for
  those double folks. This is on my to-do list. 

  Kindly check the RePEc data. I would rather submit XML data but
  it is tough to figure out it's structure from the Schema that
  Janifer submitted to me, and some data elements' semantics is
  unclear to me.

  I think it would probably better to switch to the XML data as it 
  would be easier to debug. I could give you one file per record.

  Sure good to talk but I am not sure I can get much progress done
  beyond what I have submitted right now.

  I got a copy of the British National Bibliography. It is on my
  radar for inclusion into AuthorClaim.
