  That is not a problem.

  Sure. We are a bit in a limbo at the moment, with a lot of ReDIF
  still around, and not much AMF being done. I wish that I could 
  offer more certainties here. My plan for the summer has two items:

  * work on OAI/AMF for RePEc

  * set up Open Library Foundation that will make it possible
    to raise money for the work.

  From what I have done, translation issues between 
  ReDIF and AMF are not entirely trivial, though doable. 

  Thanks for this good work!
