Hi Howard,

Thanks for your response.  I'll forward your mail to Simos as I don't know if he's joined the list yet.

You might find it useful to have a look at the Scottish Electronic Staff Development Library http://www.sesdl.scotcit.ac.uk/  This is was a
collaborative project that some of us worked on some time ago.  The repository is no longer maintained but we did implement IMS metadata so
it might be worth having a look at.

All the best
Lorna
