The OLAC validator runs off of an unit of software which has the heartbleed security vulnerability. Thinking about implementing a validator the following software comes to mind. https://github.com/zimeon/oaipmh-validator There was also an Online OAI-PMH validator from a former engineer on the Europeana project. I think he is based in Greece. His solution is not open source, but he mentioned that he would consider adding the OLAC profile. https://validator.oaipmh.com/

It would be good to see what other OAI-PMH validators look like and how submitters expect to interact with them.
