[OSGeo Africa] Introducing GeoNetwork opensource and myself

[Gaby van Wyk]

Hi Jeroen

You may remember that I mailed you on the Geonetwork list about the CSIR's SDI?

Well we've done a bit of work already - have a look at it:
http://146.64.81.55:8080/geonetwork/srv/en/main.home

For the rest, you are welcome to play around with the metadata already
loaded (some 3500 records).

We are now busy setting up the SANS (South African National Standards)
implementation. Anyone interested in helping? :-)
