Timmie,
The Australian Government's Office of Spatial Data Management (OSDM) has been
coordinating a few resources relating to Metadata that you may find of use.
They are aimed at the ANZLIC Profile of ISO 19115 / 19139, however they are
also relevant to other users of the standards as well.
(fyi, ANZLIC is Australia and New Zealand's SDI Governance body.
Also , essentially there is minimal difference between the ANZLIC Profile and
the default ISO standard).
Items of interest:
[1] OSDM Metadata entry point.
[2] Metadata resources page.
[3] What we're planning with GeoNetwork.
[4] An introduction to using ISO 19115. In particular, I'd recommend checking
out
the document 'ANZLIC Metadata Profile Guidelines'. It gives a good overview
of why we need Metadata.
[5] The ANZMet Toolkit.
[6] ANZMet Lite: A stand alone Metadata Entry tool that generates ISO 19139 XML
records
that can be imported into GeoNetwork. While I do not consider it an
appropriate Enterprise
grade tool, it does provide an interesting 'Wizard' type user interface to
guide people
through the entry of their Spatial Metadata. The Australian Government
retains the
IP to this product. If there is sufficient interest, I understand that OSDM
may be willing
to release the source code under an appropriate Open Source license. (It is
Windows
based and I think uses MS Access).
[7] A page containing presentations describing and showing the ANZMet Lite user
interface.
Congratulations to OSDM for putting this excellent resource together.
And before we get too complacent, consideration should go to Rob Atkinson's and
Rob Woodcock's (Australia's CSIRO) vision of future Spatial Metadata, where
metadata is stored and exchanged as part of the data (and data model), ideally
via OGC GML Community Schema / Profiles.

Hello,
I have piled up quite some data for a current project.
In order to keep track of the data I would like to use some automatic indexing
to create a data catalog.
Important issue! Time ago I put together this Wiki page:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Metadata_software
Please add all new findings to it,
Markus
