[OSGeo-Discuss] Creating *.shp.xml files with open source tools

[Yves Jacolin (free)]

Hello,

Note that you can use SpatialDataIntegrator to import data to GeoNetwork Node 
or create Metadata XML  file.

see http://www.talendforge.org/wiki/doku.php?id=sdi:mainpage#tutorials for 
more information.

This could not be the best solution for your user case though but seems 
interesting to talk about it.
