That particular importer (and SWORD is just another way of importing
data) is for records in the Publications Router (was called Broker) format.
If you want to import records in another format, you need to have an
importer that can understand THAT format
Question - How much of how SWORD works are you comfortable with?
SWORD is basically and http POST request to the server, with some header
fields to define what code is needed to interpret what's coming in, and
the actual "payload" as the Body of the POST Request
For SWORD 2 - I got as far as writing http://wiki.eprints.org/w/SWORD_2.0
(the code for my importer is at https://github.com/edina/RJ_Broker_2 -
have a look, take a copy, hack about to get an understanding of what
does what...)
