Christian Meesters@egonw Thanks for the friendly mention! It was a fruitful discussion. I learned a lot. And we did a bit of hacking during that workshop.
My work is yet unfinished: With #iRODS and now, newly introduced, #invenio at my uni, handling of metadata is still a challenge. Lowering the technical hurdle is still on my agenda. (It is just that other matters took precedence.)
