hi, <br>
<br>
there are some initial thoughts on the role of metadata profiles and metadata
editing environments within a registry-enabled data delivery environment here:<br>
<br>
<a
href="https://www.seegrid.csiro.au/twiki/bin/view/AppSchemas/VocabularyBindingMechanismsWorkshop">https://www.seegrid.csiro.au/twiki/bin/view/AppSchemas/VocabularyBindingMechanismsWorkshop</a><br>
<br>
even those these arent yet fully cleaned and ready for "prime time",
I have made the call that we should at least be thinking about the difference
between metadata-generated-as-part-of-a-coherent-strategy and
metadata-generated-post-hoc.<br>
<br>
Post-hoc metadata has never been much fun for anybody, nor particularly
effective in realising interoperability of data services or even detailed
documentation about data. The EU SDI (INSPIRE) is looking at a data product
specification -driven approach, and hence any investment we make should be
relevant in that arean IMHO.<br>

<br>
With some prodding from a number of you on this list, I've compiled a<br>
"Strategic Geonetwork Investment" paper collating key suggestions on
how<br>
to refocus Aust/New Zealand's investment in Geonetwork.<br>
<br>
The paper aims to collate suggestions from all of you and build upon<br>
these suggestions.<br>
<br>
I anticipate this document to be used as a talking point to focus future<br>
discussions and investment decisions in Geonetwork.<br>
<br>
I'm looking for feedback. I'm especially aware that the section on<br>
stakeholders is quite thin.<br>
Could people please update relevant sections before Friday 4 July and<br>
send back to me to be incorporated into a version 1.0.<br>
