Thanks Jeff for your help. We favor customizing oaicat by you and inject the code in the upcoming release of oaicat... we're building a new standard for the unique objects community (Museums-like but also archives and libraries).
Let's carry this discussion offline.
For people interested in our project check:

Karim,

OAICat does support additional metadata formats, but you're right that
custom code might be needed. My guess, though, is that this would amount
to a page or two of Java and/or XSLT. Let me know if you want to look at
it again and I can lend a hand.

Jeff
