Tentative functional requirements for registry and repository interoperability include
Ability to hand off queries on subject matter to other repositories: for example, if a registry is queried for DTDs for some particular subject, it might forward the query to another registry known to contain entities relevant to that subject matter. There must be a specified way to do this so that registries can respond in a consistent way. Left for future work.
accept such queries
Ability to show content in the registry interface that is held in a repository other than that associated with the registry: for example, a registry might display the content of a repository operated by a different authority in its own registry interface.
Ability to redirect requests for content (that is, requests by URL, URN, PI, or FPI) to other repositories where the content is stored physically.
