Looking for JAR file that is responsible for DwC-A creation.

Hi, I'm a developer working on the BDRS - http://code.google.com/p/ala-citizenscience/. I'm in the process of adding the ability to export observations of species as a darwin core archive. I've been perusing your code files at http://repository.gbif.org hoping to find a jar file that I can leverage some of the functionality of the IPT without having to run whole application. To achieve this I would like to include one (or more) of the org.gbif jars as a dependency in our maven build. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the jar that constructs a new archive. Could someone please point me in the right direction? If the functionality I'm looking for doesn't exist, that would be great for me to know as well. Thanks for your time, Regards, Aaron Low Gaia Resources p +61 8 9227 7309 w www.gaiaresources.com.au e aaron.low(a)gaiaresources.com.au

Hi Folks, I am new to IPT. Reading through the doco I see reference to GeoServer. Can someone advise whether GeoServer install is required for IPT 2.0 or it was only required for IPT 1.0. Thanks, Antony Antony Tomasovic Technical Specialist (Software Services) CSIRO IM&T CSIRO

Simple Images Extension
by Aurelio Sanabria 09 Sep '11

Hello, I was wondering, ¿why is that there is no "rightHolder" field on the Simple Images extension? Is there a 'formal' way to add this field? I need to share some images but, I need to specify "Who" is giving the images under "license". -- Best regards, Aurelio Sanabria http://informatics.inbio.ac.cr

And have you tried Tim's suggestion? Could you try issuing \s command in the mysql client shell to show it's character set settings? That would show information like this: Connection id: 37141 Current database: Current user: root@localhost SSL: Not in use Current pager: stdout Using outfile: '' Using delimiter: ; Server version: 5.1.56 Source distribution Protocol version: 10 Connection: Localhost via UNIX socket Server characterset: utf8 Db characterset: utf8 Client characterset: utf8 Conn. characterset: utf8 UNIX socket: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock Uptime: 41 days 22 hours 43 min 50 sec Threads: 1 Questions: 597738 Slow queries: 20 Opens: 2328 Flush tables: 1 Open tables: 64 Queries per second avg: 0.164 -------------- which contains character set settings.

For instance 'Närke' is displayed as 'NÃ¤rke'. This happens regardless of the character encoding chosen under /source.do. The original data is UTF8, but then I don't know if any settings in tomcat need to be changed. >>> >>> Do you have some knowledge about this issue?
