Dear Bas, and others,

Thanks a lot for all the replies.
I realized that it wasn't going to be a very simple adaptation  
(although I understand it should be possible, with some tweaking), so  
for now I just stick with some redirects, which do the trick too (even  
if it's not entirely through the EPrints system itself).

Thanks again!
Patrick
