[ome-users] Import metadata from lif image

[Mario Valle]

If I understand correctly, the metadata are loaded from an imported image into OME.

Take for example the 2007-11-12_L15_AF001.lif Leica image you find under
ftp.cscs.ch/out/mvalle/

For example the loci tool shoinf extracts from this image the following data about the
instrument:

AF_405ex_001 - DMI6000 Turret - Dummy Name (Obj.) - DUMMYNAME: Dummy5
AF_405ex_001 - DMI6000 Turret - Numerical aperture (Obj.) - NumericalAperture: 1.4
AF_405ex_001 - DMI6000 Turret - Objective - Objective: HCX PL APO lambda blue  63.0x1.40
OIL  UV
AF_405ex_001 - DMI6000 Turret - Order number (Obj.) - OrderNumber: 11506192
AF_405ex_001 - DMI6000 Turret - Refraction index - RefractionIndex: 1.518

But inside OME we were not able to find those values anywhere.
Also executing a: select * from objectives;
from inside the database reveals no metadata about objectives has been loaded from all our
tests.

Is this a bug or a limitation of OME?
Thanks for clarifying!
