Hi All, 
A new need is occuring in my corp, and i would like to know if others have
been thinking of that:

I would like to be able to build a minimalist metadata ISO 199115 catalog
referencing QGIS maps and composers. Xml format of QGS already contains a
lot of feature that allows starting a work. 

I see two ways:
- a minimalistic one, generating iso metadata using existing info stored in
QGS. This is not INSPIRE compatible, but allows me to reference maps quickly
(an dirty)
- a complete one, associating a xml iso file inside or along qgs file, if
user want it. All the hard job is tio synchronise xml with qgs content and
events. 

Is anybody already working on that ? I would be pleased to share on it. 
I have seen that some work is done on QGIS and ISO19110 data catalogs for
JRC , we could share some parts of developpement. 

Cheers Régis
