Just to clarify a few things, to make sure we're on the same page.
Publishing full metadata is a task for a CSW, like GeoNetwork, as Andrea
says. One current hassle though is that GeoServer has a subset of full
metadata fields (title, abstract, keywords, etc.), so currently one
publishing a service has to manually keep the two in sync (the geonetwork
full metadata and the geoserver service metadata). We solve this problem in
GeoNode - http://geonode.org It lets you edit metadata in one place and
then keeps both geonetwork and geoserver in sync.
The GeoServer metadata link is just to provide a link to an ISO or FGDC
metadata document, and it's up to the user to keep it all up to date. In
GeoNode we automatically make the metadata link in GeoServer, and the
WMS/WFS links in GeoNetwork.
I'm actually talking to our client right now about potentially improving it,
doing something where GeoServer is able to read in or transform the linked
metadata in to the capabilities document, to help avoid filling it all out
multiple times.
