Thanks Tom and Alex. Both of your comments were very helpful. Looking at
the link that Tom sent, it seems that GeoNetwork is the solution to the
problem.

Also check out http://www.fgdc.gov/metadata/iso-metadata-editor-review.
It also depends on what your metadata requirements are in terms of
standards support. ISO 19139:2007 (or some profile of, such as North
American Profile) is the metadata standard of choice for many SDI
actitivites currently.

Subject: Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Creating *.shp.xml files with
open source tools
I created an experimental plugin for QGIS to deal with
Metadata xml records. We never got the creation part
finished, but there should be template xml files for FGDC,
ISO and some other standards (USGS and all US agencies follow
FGDC, and now the FGDC variant of a new ISO format).
Though FGDC only finished their variant of the ISO last year
so it has not been included yet.
There are a few other tools out their: CatMDEdit
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimed/ was also announced a
few months back with support for INSPIRE Geonetwork can also
be used to edit the same info, I just can't remember if it
makes an xml you can download to pack with your file.
I think there's at least one other QGIS component in the
works but I don't know the ETA on it.
Thanks,
Alex

All,
I wanted to know if there were open source tools available
to create
metadata *.shp.xml files to distribute with a shapefile set.
Thanks,
