Tetsuite INSPIRE Theme dateType

[manilly]

Hello,

when validating INSPIRE metadata of a dataset we get a failed test for the INSPIRE GEMET thesaurus cause of a missing dateType "publication" (md-iso.f.1: Dataset keyword).

The metadata record set has 1 record(s) with errors for this assertion.
XML document 'xxx', record 'xxx': The metadata record has keywords which originate from a controlled vocabulary 'GEMET - INSPIRE themes, version 1.0', but the date or date type is not correct. Date should be '2008-06-01' and date type 'publication'. The keywords are: xxx.

e.g. http://geometadatensuche.inspire.gv.at/metadatensuche/srv/api/records/55e494dd-e0af-4806-95d6-86e30dde0504/formatters/xml

GeoNetwork saves the datetype like this:
<gmd:CI_DateTypeCode codeList=http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/codelist/ML_gmxCodelists.xml#CI_DateTypeCode codeListValue="publication"/>

We found out that the validator only accepts the datetype if also written in plain text outside the xml tag element, which in my opinion is not necessary:
<gmd:CI_DateTypeCode codeList=http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/codelist/ML_gmxCodelists.xml#CI_DateTypeCode codeListValue="publication">publication</gmd:CI_DateTypeCode>

Can you change the test suite, that the dateType gets extracted from the codelistvalue and not from plain text?

Best regards,
Manuel
