+= The Oopen Geospatial Consortium Catalog Service for the Web 2.0.1 implementation =
+
+The OGC-CSW 2.0.1 base specification, based on the ISO application profile, has been implemented in GeoNetwork opensource version 2.1 and serves as the OGC reference implementation for this specification. It complies to all of the created [http://cite.geoenterpriselab.com/teamengine/ CITE tests for CSW 2.0.1]
+
+The supported operations and their exact bahavior is listed below:
+
+Implemented standards:
+04-021r3 : CSW 2.0.1 specification
+04-038r4 : CSW 2.0.1 - ISO application profile
+
+The CSW server code has been implemented and is available from the SVN (Subversion) code repository at svn://geonetwork.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/geonetwork . 
+
+The application has passed all [http://cite.geoenterpriselab.com/teamengine/ CITE tests] developed for the CSW 2.0 base specification. A detailed reference of the implemented operations is provided below. 
+
+A client test application provided with the software can be used to locally test the mandatory and optional operations. 
+
+== Detailed Implementation Reference per Operation ==
+
+This section provides details on the implemented behavior of the CSW operations. All requests can be sent using GET/POST or SOAP protocol.
+
+Limitations:
+
+* ISO19119 services are not implemented
+
+* The CQL is naive and has several limitations (for example it does not handle the bbox)
+
+* Type names are not handles because they can be queried using the 'Type' queryable.
