Test done today showed 17 errors when tested on 
http://128.151.244.137:8080/OAIToolkit_0.6.1/oai-request.do which is our data 
source for the MST demo site.  Note that some of the tests executed by this 
program are designed to test that the repository responds well to not well 
formed requests (dates, etc.).

Seems the problem lies in the oai-identifier.  I think we need to remove the 
domainName element and add a delimiter element in its place, e.g.,

<oai-identifier xmlns="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier 
http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier.xsd">
      <scheme>oai</scheme>
      <domainName />
      <repositoryIdentifier>carli.illinois.edu</repositoryIdentifier>
      <sampleIdentifier>oai:carli.illinois.edu:CARLIVoyager1/123</sampleIdentifier>
 </oai-identifier>

should become:

<oai-identifier xmlns="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier 
http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai-identifier.xsd">
      <scheme>oai</scheme>
      <delimiter>:</delimiter>
      <repositoryIdentifier>carli.illinois.edu</repositoryIdentifier>
      <sampleIdentifier>oai:carli.illinois.edu:CARLIVoyager1/123</sampleIdentifier>
 </oai-identifier>
