Hello list,<br><br>I have just started testing pycsw for our meta data catalogue and am<br>quite impressed so far. Great work!<br><br>However, I have now stumbled upon a problem when using the harvesting<br>operation. I have enabled transactions in the default.cfg file and the<br>


harvesting test from the test suite works (after changing ResourceType<br>from <a href="http://www.isotc211.org/schemas/2005/gmd/" target="_blank">http://www.isotc211.org/schemas/2005/gmd/</a> to<br><a href="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd" target="_blank">http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd</a>). However, this only harvests<br>


individual metadata files. What I want to do is to harvest all records<br>from another CSW server. So, from what I understand, I would have to<br>change ResourceType to <a href="http://www.opengis.net/cat/csw/2.0.2" target="_blank">http://www.opengis.net/cat/csw/2.0.2</a> and give<br>


the link to the capabilities document as Source.<br><br>So, my query is:<br><br><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br><Harvest xmlns="<a href="http://www.opengis.net/cat/csw/2.0.2" target="_blank">http://www.opengis.net/cat/csw/2.0.2</a>"<br>
