4 The MARC stream importer script, commonly used with external 
5 services like OCLC Connexion, is now capable of importing authority
6 records in addition to bib records.  A single running instance of
7 the script can import either type of record, based on the record
8 leader.

28 The following options still work and map to the "bib" equivalent
29 of the option, however a deprecation warning message is generated 
30 when the script is started.
31
32  * --import-no-match
33  * --auto-overlay-exact
34  * --auto-overlay-1match
35  * --auto-overlay-best-match

37 No Longer Supported Options
38 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++
39
40 --import-by-queue is no longer supported.  This option serves no
41 particular purpose and is a bad idea when re-using the same queue over
42 and over as most people do, because queue bloat will increase run times.
43
44 --noqueue (AKA "direct import") is no longer supported.  All imports go
45 through Vandelay now.
