Annotations

 * Unfortunatly no schema exists for the xml we can fetch from Spires.
 * No fetching API is implemented, we fetch via calling http://www.slac.stanford.edu/spires/find/hep/xmlpublic?rawcmd=eprintID oder http://www.slac.stanford.edu/spires/find/hep/xmlpublic?irn=internalID ?
 * Spires does not support fetching full text
 * How to handle temporary entries, see http://www-spires.fnal.gov/spires/hep/te.shtml and http://www-spires.fnal.gov/spires/find/hep/www?irn=8003041
 * Do we actually have to handle them different? As the user decides what items he wants to import into PubMan. --Kleinfercher 09:21, 16 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Affilliation: usage of abbreviations, could be resolved against http://www-spires.fnal.gov/spires/find/inst/www?rawcmd=find+address+UMIST&SEQUENCE=icn
 * Unfortunatly i can not fetch this information, this service seems to be for displaying purpose only.--Kleinfercher 14:37, 16 December 2008 (UTC)


 * SPIRES is going to implement a OAI-pmh till end of 2009.

XML Examples

 * example1
 * example2 (unpublished)
 * example3 (conference paper)
 * example4
 * example5 (with source information)

Problems

 * I found items in the repositorys which do not have a standard identifier (We won't be able to fetch them)
 * example1
 * example2

Possible Identifiers

 * 1) arXiv ID        (arXiv:0812.2902)
 * 2) arxiv ID old    (hep-ph/0001001)
 * 3) DOI             (10.1016/J.NIMA.2008.08.135)
 * 4) Spires Internal (7999488)

The dataAcquisition service will be enhanced as it now accepts diffenerent identifier types for one source. For Spires it will accept arxiv identifier and DOI.

(I think Spires internal identifier will not be used)
