[eml-dev] EML Data Managament Online

[Matt Jones]

Hi Martin,

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by 'capture', but we have a 
middleware application called Metacat 
(http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/software/metacat/) that will allow you to 
upload EML documents, store and search them, and display them online 
through a configurable web interface.  Metacat runs our main KNB web 
site (http://knb.ecoinformatics.org) containing about 12,000 EML 
documents, and runs other information management systems throughout the 
world (a partial list is at 
http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/community.jsp).  Metacat is free and 
open-source (licensed under the GPL), so you could adapt it to the uses 
you would like.  We support a servlet interface, a web services 
interface (EcoGrid), and several client libraries (java, perl, ...), so 
you should be able to interface it with CMS systems if you want.

Hope this is helpful.

Matt
