[kepler-dev] Re: LSIDs and SRB

[Shawn Bowers]

Hi Chris,

I haven't looked into this question, and so I don't have an answer. I am 
forwarding to the kepler-dev email list -- to see if the SRB folks have 
looked into this issue and/or have any ideas.

My guess would be that a thin layer would need to be added ... and 
hopefully SRB already implements most of the functionality required for 
supporting LSIDs.
