Hello Martin Thank you for your kind reply.
I don't have an account on Apache JIRA. My situation is that I've always been a solo developer and I've not had to use systems for Version control, agile, JIRA, etc, etc. So if you will forgive me, I would just like not to have to learn those systems. I understand it would be preferable for me to do so, as it would allow me to integrate more with your development team.
I am happy to complete the task you have given me, and after that I would like to go back to my own software development that I have as a hobby. I am a retired accountant. Recently I've been interested in Data Science, and can put together projects using the R language. I wasn't really looking for tasks but was looking at the Apache site due to their future (after Java version 9) adoption of Java Development from Oracle. Out of curiosity, I came across the 'help wanted' link, and that is how we met. When people need help, it is always a human thing to do what you can in the moment.
Yes, I saw Siddhesh's JavaFX development. It will be useful to be able to get different views of these files.

Hello Rob No problem, health is most important. I wish you speedy recovery. There is no rush, take your time. A document table is great, if you want it would be nice to add it to SIS-331: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-331 (Note: do you have an account on Apache JIRA? If yes, would you like to be owner of that task?) In the meantime, I have done a little bit of simplification in the code that use AttributeName for implementing the actual mapping (but without changing the mapping). In this process, I created a new JIRA task documenting the mapping that we may question (only one case for now). The reason is that I think the XSL file is based on the 2003 version of ISO 19115 while the new revision published in 2014 could cause us to reconsider a few choices. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-361 If we discover more cases that could be revisited, we can add them to SIS-161 then submit them to the UNIDATA community. Indeed, reading a XSL file is tedious. It makes you work yet more appreciated! Siddhesh Rane is working on a JavaFX application which will allow us to see the metadata in a convenient way. It will not help for the XSL file, but it will allow us to see more easily the result of those mapping on concrete examples.

It is now being treated with antibiotics and should clear up hopefully within a week. I am busy preparing a word processing document table showing the matched and unmatched mapping of the ACDD attribute names in the various parts of the AttributeNames class Javadoc. Also, the mapping of the path info between the Javadoc and ISO-19115. I must say, visually reading the XSL file is difficult. I even used the Netbeans XML window to view the file and get to the hierarchy of interest to us. One can normally get to a branch or node name by using "find" though. Kind regards Rob
