Norman,
There are certainly a number of people interested in an open-source
CSW / ebRIM implementation, since there are open-source +/- reference
implementations of most other OGC service specifications. Of course,
ebxmlrr is based not only on the ebRIM information (meta)model, but
also on the ebRS registry service, which has substantial differences
from CS/W and includes a repository interface which doesn't really
exist in the CS/W profile.
That opens several questions as to the best / simplest approach for
implementing a CS/W with this software. Do have a particular strategy
in mind at this point? Perhaps something like an IRC chat could be
arranged to discuss this in the next week or so.
Cheers,
Josh Lieberman

Hi,
as I am not aware of any open source ebrim catalog profiles of CSW I
thought I would have a go with ebxmlrr (omar). I am part of the OSGEO
geodata group, and as part of this I wrote the spatial hibernate
components for PostGIS, and the spatial dialect that allows spatial
(adhoc :-) ) queries.
I have put full details on how to set up Postgresql and Omar (ebxmlrr)
the open source OASIS ebxml reference registry are available here
http://ebxmlrr.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Deploy/container/JBoss
and we have started an OGC page here
http://ebxmlrr.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Community/ogc
I am not advocating either the ebrim or the RESTful approach, but I
know it is useful to have an implementation that we can all evaluate -
and hence make meaningful comments on.
Any experiences, advice then please send them my way.
I have sent this to geow*nking since this is where the real
thinkers are!
thanks,
Norman
