hi Andrea:
Thank you very much!
As to another CSW service, Transaction, how about this, it is not implemented in GN 2.1 either. They had the same reason?

The CSW harvesting operation has a not well defined sematics and is not
flexible enough to allow a good harvesting. The specs are continually
changing making its usage useless. I’m finishing to implement the OAI-PMH
harvesting protocol and, IMHO, it outperforms CSW harvesting on all aspects.
