[Koha] Scraping online web catalogues to provide Z39.50 server

[Dobrica Pavlinušić]

I wrote simple Z39.50 server which uses WWW::Mechanize to scrape web pages
and produce MARC records which can then be imported in Koha.

Short announcement is at:

http://blog.rot13.org/2010/10/z3950_server_which_scrapes_web_catalogues_for_information.html

and source code is on github:

http://github.com/dpavlin/Biblio-Z3950

Source is important, because you will have to modify it, even to use
another Aleph instance because
my instance uses Croatian language, and there are regexes inside which
include few words of
language to find number or results.

But, I hope this will motivate someone to provide a data source or two
over Z39.50 :-)
