*.ibooks files are just an Apple-specific profile of EPUB.
From an OPDS perspective:
- we don't care at all about file extensions, only media types
- I suspect that *.ibooks file still use the EPUB media type
- nothing prevents you from using whatever media type you'd like to use in an OPDS catalog
- the only limitation is: will the client actually display that link and/or be able to open the publication ?
I think that iBooks will be used to open any link with this file type. What should be the mime type I don't know.--Ori IdanHelicon Books
