ISO19139 requires a publication date for a named thesaurus. But this does not seem to be expressible in EML.

As you said Éamonn, this could be a potential change to EML. Looking forward to hearing what they say following your recommendation.

Subject: adding publication date property to keywordSet 

Both EML and ISO19115 provide fields for keywords and the name/title of
associated thesaurus.  However, if the thesaurus name is provided, in the
case, of ISO19115, a publication date must also be included. In order to
ensure maximum information transfer in cross walks from EML to the new North
American Profile of ISO19115 [1], consider adding a conditional date (and
date type) property to the EML keywordSet. See example in [2].
