[pycsw-devel] Links Question

Exactly, Dan. ncISO is not generating a gmd:protocol entry for that viewer.
It is not included in the ncISO XSLT. Feel free to add one to your copy of
the XSLT (UnidataDD2MI.xsl). But again, there's no valid gmd:protocol entry
for such a viewer, really, so it would seem a moot point to me.
Cheers,
John
