| 10 | == Overview == |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Revise CSW support in order to serve as the OGC Reference Implementation for CSW v2.0.2. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | === Proposal Type === |
| 15 | * '''Type''': CSW modules only, including some CSW-related kernel services and stylesheets |
| 16 | * '''App''': !GeoNetwork |
| 17 | * '''Module''': CSW, Kernel, web |
| 18 | |
| 19 | === Links === |
| 20 | * '''Documents''': OGC Web Services Common Specification (OGC 05-008), OpenGIS Catalog Services Specification (OGC 07-006r1), OpenGIS Catalogue Services Specification 2.0.2 - ISO Metadata Application Profile (OGC 07-045), OGC CSW 2.0.2 Schemas (http://schemas.opengis.net/csw/2.0.2/) |

| 27 | ---- |
| 28 | |
| 29 | == Motivations == |
| 30 | The current configuration does not support the current version of the CSW specification. A number of ambiguities in the 2.0.1 specification have been clarified in 2.0.2 and should be reflected in the GeoNetwork implementation. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | == Proposal == |
| 33 | Propose to implement changes to bring the GeoNetwork CSW server into 100% compliance with the OGC OWS-5 CITE test suite. |
| 34 | Revisions to the GeoNetwork Java and XSL code are well-isolated, so modifications to implement CSW 2.0.2 should not affect other parts of the system. |
| 35 | |
| 36 | === Backwards Compatibility Issues === |
| 37 | This will eliminate compatibility with earlier versions of CSW. Backwards compability would be unlikely to work in any event because v2.0.2 fixes ambiguities in earlier versions that have caused interoperability problems. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | == Risks == |
| 40 | Revisions have been tested and shown to be compliant with the CSW 2.0.2 test suite, so risks are minimal. |
