! 26: The NSDL-LONCAPA Gateway effort is part of a funded pilot project
! 27: to investigate integration between the
! 28: <a href="http://www.nsdl.org/">National Science Digital Library (NSDL)</a>
! 29: and the <a href="http://www.lon-capa.org/">LearningOnline Network with CAPA
! 30: (LON-CAPA)</a>.
! 31: </p>
! 32: <p>
! 33: From the standpoint of NSDL, two things must happen on the gateway: 1) LON-CAPA
! 34: metadata must be available in a suitable XML format (IEEE LOM
! 35: and/or Dublin core); and 2) LON-CAPA must
! 36: implement an <a href="http://www.openarchives.org/">OAI</a>-compatible
! 37: harvesting protocol.
! 38: </p>
! 39: <p>
! 40: From the standpoint of LON-CAPA, two things must happen via the gateway:
! 41: 1) maintaining transparency--all interaction with NSDL is to be seamless
! 42: and "on-the-fly" from the standpoint of users; and therefore
! 43: 2) tight integration is anticipated.
