Pure OAI-PMH Metadata Service

OAI-PMH metadata harvesting service for the Aarhus University Pure research portal, used to expose and harvest research-output metadata. The service path resolves but the Identify verb returned a server error during review, so endpoint behavior should be re-verified before relying on it.
