It's not PHP, but perl-based, however it might fit your needs.<BR>

Subject: [OAI-implementers] OAIbiblio installation question and questionabout PHP harvesting software<BR>
<BR>
Hello -<BR>
<BR>
I co-direct a nonprofit organization called IssueLab. We are an online<BR>
publishing forum for nonprofit-produced research. We'd like to implement a<BR>
data harvester.<BR>
<BR>
Our site is built on a Linux-Apache-MySQLv5-PHPv5 platform. I have been<BR>
looking around for software to deploy and I ran across OAIbiblio which seems<BR>
spot on for our needs. But, while attempting to install it we have run into<BR>
a problem.<BR>
<BR>
I downloaded the .tar archive available at <A HREF="http://www.ibiblio.org/oaibiblio/">http://www.ibiblio.org/oaibiblio/</A>.<BR>
Read through the install file and noticed that two folders and their<BR>
requisite files were missing:<BR>
<BR>
1) "transform: ("Handles metadata format mappings and transformations") with<BR>
a sub-folder labeled "xsl" ("Holds xsl files; each xsl file represents a<BR>
transformation")<BR>
<BR>
2) folder: "docs"<BR>
<BR>
I have sent a note to the author of the software but haven't heard anything<BR>
back. Is this software obsolete? If not is there another complete download I<BR>
can grab from somewhere or does someone have this and is able to share it<BR>
with us? I haven't been able to track down any link except the one referred<BR>
to above. Also, does anyone know of any other PHP data harvesting software?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks so much for any help/insight!<BR>
<BR>
