What is the definition of an invalid OAI identifier, and how should my OAI server respond to invalid identifiers when they are passed as arguments?
OAI-PMH says that identifiers must be URIs. Thus, your OAI server should indicate an invalid argument (badArgument) error when an identifier value is not a valid URI. For example, an OAI request with an identifier argument containing a quotation (“) should respond with an invalid argument (badArgument) error because the quotation character is not allowed in a URI.
