I would be interested in hearing real-life experiences with GeoNetwork
as well.

I don't think that I'll have time to put something together. I can
certainly talk informally about our experience thus far. I'd still like
to get Paul Morin from the AGIC project at the UMN over to talk to the
group. Paul would be person to speak about the need that we hope
GeoNetwork can fill. Turns out that there is another local project (also
based at the UMN) also using GeoNetwork (in Africa) so perhaps I could
look into a more substantial presentation from both groups at the
meeting after next. Plus, the AGIC project should have something to
actually demo by then.
I do think it would be an interesting topic. There are probably some
misconceptions about what
GeoNetwork is or isn't and what it can do out of the box.
