Angelos,
I'm interested to understand why someone would use gimed instead of GeoNetwork (the currently established Metadata editor)?
What does gimed provide above GeoNetwork?
Why was gimed developed rather than extending GeoNetwork?
Could gimed be incorporated into GeoNetwork?

The other open source package in this space is Geopublisher:

 Hello everyone,

I would like to announce the release of gimed, an INSPIRE compliant metadata editor. It is a desktop implementation similar to the interface provided by the INSPIRE Geoportal Metadata Editor.

Main features:
- Validation of Metadata
- Automatic import of geographic bounding box from data files (through gdal).
- Cross platform through Mono


Features to come:
- Batch metadata creation / editing
- Import to GeoNetwork Opensource
- Support for more reference systems (curently supports greek EPSG:2100)
- Support for Data Series

The released version is 1.2 beta and can be found here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimed/

Anyone who wishes to be involved, is very welcome.
Please send suggestions, comments, bugs etc :)

Regards,
Angelos Tzotsos (aka kalxas)
