The "uuid" is not yet supported, but this is work in progress (since last week, 
I started to rework on Metadata marshalling/unmarshalling).

There is no public API for fetching directly the "codeList" attribute in current 
Geotk implementation, because this attribute is (in theory) redundant with the 
<gmd:CI_RoleCode> (for example) element. For example (continuing on the XML and 
code example), the following:

    DefaultResponsibleParty retValue = ...;
    System.out.println(retValue.getRole());


should print:

    Role[POINT_OF_CONTACT]


You can test equality by:

    if (Role.POINT_OF_CONTACT.equals(retValue.getRole()))


The same apply to every code lists.

Would it work for your data, or do you have cases where the "codeList" attribute 
is different than the XML element containing it?
