>> 1. In Apply Templates/Data Type, clicking on Manage gives the following error:
>> An error has occured while executing Python code:
> Seems, this is PyQt bug, some bindings not available in old versions.
> Can you provide your PyQt version? We'll look what we can do with this.

I have many pyton-qt* items, but all of them 4.7.2

>> 2. The 2 boxes in  Apply Templates (Extract Layer... and Generate
>> previre...) must be clicked every time.
> Added to the TODO. Will be implemented soon
Thanks

>> 3. When the Metadata of one geotif layer are created, the geographic
>> box does not seem to have taken the CRS into account:

Yes, but before that just statint the current CRS in which the
coordinates are provided would be more urgent.

>> 4. Can the xls files be loaded as layers so that the user can explore
>> whatever layers are available for a given region?
> Not sure that understand you correctly. XLS files are MS Excel files and

Sorry by the typo error! yes, I mean the xml files with the metadata.

Also, our cartographic institute always mentions ISO 19115/19139 . Is
that compatible
with your 19115? As far (little) as I understand, 19139 is an
specification for 19115.

Thanks again for helping out with this nightmare of the metadata....
