[EP-tech] Re: Robots.txt / OAI

Just a quick question/comment:
Does the robots.txt file (e.g. http://demoprints.eprints.org/robots.txt ) mean that compliant bots don't access the OAI-PMH interface http://demoprints.eprints.org/cgi/oai2 ?

Is this an issue?
In practise, I don't think OAI bots will look at robots.txt. But I agree /oai2 ought to be Allow(ed).
