Bedankt!
I'd like to move this discussion to the developer list.

We have a client side application collecting (amongst others) metadata.
From this application we want to upload the metadata to a GeoNetwork
server.
At this moment we have been succesful in uploading the metadata itself
using HTTP messages (thanks to TCPMon to figure out how) to the web
services on the server side.
Agreed
However we have not been succesful yet in uploading data files to the
server.
The entire approach (using HTTP messages) feels a bit like hacking, so
we were wondering if you have a WSDL file so we could access the web
services a bit more conveniently.
We've discussed that several times but not put efforts in it as there was no clear need. It may be time for someone to have a closer look at it now.
If not do you have some suggestion with regard to the uploading of the
data files?
I think the config.xml file that defines the services could do with more comments (or could have an associated document describing the services and the parameters available). This would somehow fulfill the role of a WSDL document and could be done much faster!?
You may study the Java classes called by a service (you can find out what classes are called by studying the config.xml). That should give you information on the different parameters that are used by the service. I know its not the most elegant, but it works and is probably better than using TCPMon 
It may also reveal the variables that are available but not implemented in the user interface.
( I didn't forget your previous post! )
Hope this helps,
Groeten,
Jeroen
