Hi Marcelo,
From our TDS documents page (http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/docs/), there is an "Automatic Catalog Generation using datasetScan" link that describes the TDS configuration catalogs in some detail. Is this the kind of information you are looking for?
We have code that can generate DIF records for datasets in a THREDDS catalog if there is enough metadata in the catalog. This code and some code to allow harvesting of the metadata (OAI-PMH) is still in a prototype stage. It would need some work to get it running again and make it more robust. 

Hope this helps,

Ethan
