Using Invenio 0.99.x and interested in SEO? You should definetly try to avoid duplicate title‘s!

Some of you have mailed asking for webaccess roles, actions, authorizations and default behaviour. Like you, I assumed the default behaviour for act=SRV is NOT ALLOW (as stated in the webaccess manual). I was not 100% sure this is right, because for act=SBI the default behaviour seemed to be ALLOW… Well, this is how things [...]
