this meta data only dataset shows no information about geographical coverage nor taxonomy.
it isn't in the api response either
http://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/d92e7617-616e-4928-9051-3d19cfb2ff0a
but it is in the original eml
http://ipt.medobis.eu/eml.do?r=danishexpedition_mediterranean_scopelidae
that is a shame - we should parse that if possible. IT seems to be the case for all meta data only datasets I have looked at]]>

There are several points in our crawler architecture that need to change to actually index EML endpoints. We don't do this currently at all.
Currently:
- the crawl coordinator ignores EML endpoints to be crawled
- the dwca-metasync service listens only to DwcaValidationFinishedMessage requiring a dwc archive to exist
We might need to redesign the message workflow or just add new ones for pure EML/Metadata endpoints.
