First copy Northwestern's data into /data/web/ead/nwu.

Next run index.sh in /data/web/ead/nwu2. This will filter the data from the former into the latter, stripping the namespace and rendering the eadid into a simple element via index.php, which it invokes:

(... php -f index.php ../nwu/$f > $f\)

<?php

// attribute goes to text node.
// throw away namespace.

$xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->load($argv[1]);

$xp = new DOMXPath($xml);
$xp->registerNamespace('e', 'urn:isbn:1-931666-22-9');
$nl = $xp->query('//e:eadid');
foreach ($nl as $n) {
        while ($n->attributes->length > 0) {
                if ($n->attributes->item(0)->name == 'identifier') {
                        $n->nodeValue = $n->attributes->item(0)->value;
                }
                $n->removeAttribute($n->attributes->item(0)->name);
        }
}

echo preg_replace('/<ead [^>]*>/', '<ead>', $xml->saveXML());
