as a matter of fact, this is incorrect.  Google has recently been doing
things with the OAI-PMH.  the important thing for Google, as far as I
understand, is getting to content.  if enough content is available through
the OAI-PMH, they will use the OAI-PMH to get to it.  and it seems that
Google has decided that enough interesting content might be (or might
become) available through the OAI-PMH for it be worth their time.
