Dear all,

In case there's someone else interested in a generic Java client library for TAPIR, James Ytow recently ported the tapirChirp PHP library. You can check out the source code from sourceforge using the following Subversion address:

https://digir.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/digir/TapirJChirp/trunk

To run a simple capabilities test:

java -cp . org.tdwg.tapir.TAPIRClient some_tapir_end_point

According to James, the remaining works are: - API documentation (cut-and-paste from TapirChirp PHP code?). - Implementation of a TAPIR finder using GBIF UDDI.

Anyone willing to collaborate will be certainly more than welcome.

Best Regards, -- Renato
