Hi Chris,

The remote repository in Kepler allows you to store, share, and search
for workflows using a storage server that is accessed using a web
service API. Although technically any server that implements the API
can be used, in practice we have only used the Metacat system for this
-- http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/software/metacat

You can install your own Metacat and configure Kepler to use it in the
development version of Kepler. Ben Leinfelder, Mike Daigle, and Chad
Berkley should be able to answer any questions you have on setting up
this system. Note that at this point having multiple repositories is
experimental, but it has worked for us. The upcoming Kepler 2.0 should
improve support for workflow repositories.

Happy New Year,
Matt
