The new service will allow end users to search a special catalog of
bibliographic records (maintained in parallel on both the RLG and
Pica host computers), via Web browsers and to retrieve documents
linked to them -- full text, articles, maps, images, etc. -- using
Web technology. WebDOC interposes a licensing and accounting server
between the catalog record and access to the whole document it
describes, to verify that the user is covered by an institutional
license or else to debit the user's personal account.

[...]

RLG and Pica plan to launch WebDOC as a pilot production project
this year, starting in January in the Netherlands and Germany and in
September in the United States.

	Mit wem m"ochte  das  denn  Pica in Deutschland zusammen
	machen?  Gibt es da schon n"ahere Details?  Insbesondere
	w"urden mich die Hard- und Software-Voraussetzungen f"ur
	WebDOC interessieren (vielleicht auch noch ein paar  an-
	dere) :-)
