QGIS Should be able to handle data and metadata according to INSPIRE specifications. This means among others, to prepare set of plugins (let's call it e.g. INSPIRE4QGIS). With this plugins it would be possible to
* Search the data sources in catalogues (keyword CSW, something like http://www.inspire-geoportal.eu/catalogue/Start.do)
* Display the Metadata from this catalogues
* Download and display the data in QGIS (keywords: WMS, WFS, WCS)
* Transform the data (keyword: WPS)
* Possibly add INSPIRE Metadata Editor in the future.
Without being able to follow the INSPIRE rules, QGIS would not became *the* GIS solution for State organisations in EU.
