[OAI-implementers] Question about sets

[Simeon Warner]

I think so too:

http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/openarchivesprotocol.htm#Set
...
When a repository defines a set organization it _must_ include set 
membership information in the headers of items returned in response to the 
ListIdentifiers , ListRecords and GetRecord requests.
...

Cheers,
Simeon
