Discussion of contents of next release 2.5 :

• MultiLingual metadata editing: lacks PSC approval for now. Jeroen hopes to see some changes to the presentation in the editor; a screencast by Francois explaining it is available at ​http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/attachment/wiki/MultilingualMetadata/geonetwork-multilingual-editing.2.swf;
• Heikki and Francois will work on a proposal for INSPIRE support;
• GeoEditorViewer (see screencast at ​http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/attachment/wiki/GeoEditorViewer/geoeditor.swf) will be put up for vote on the mailing list;
• replace InterMap with OpenLayers and GeoExt; camptocamp is currently working on adding CSW protocol support in OpenLayers and GeoExt and this will really help building search interface.
• swisstopo Hidden Elements can be integrated to trunk by Jose
