Hi Joerg,
I notice you never got a response to this, so here's a couple of thoughts:
The main thing is that sword doesn't care about the metadata format that
you are depositing - its job is to handle the transport bit of the deposit.
Probably your issue is with the DSpace package ingesters not supporting
your metadata format (which would be true whether you were using sword or
not to get the content in).
If you have custom metadata in your METS manifest, you'll need to modify
the DSpaceMETSIntegester (I think it's called) to deal with it.
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Richard
