[ome-users] Image Upload and Java API

[gerhard]

Hello,
Is it not possible that there is a remote function that extracts the 
metadata from uploaded pictures if it is in the right format. I think if 
I upload an image from the webui this is done be the Image Importers.
So I should be able to run this functions on images when I uploaded the 
to OMEIS.
Regarding the image upload I would prefer this to be done with XML-RPC 
because this way is independent from the used programming language.
