Hello!

I think we can agree that it should be possible to attach attribute data
to fixpoints, stations, shots and groups.

I do know quite well that we cannot cover every attribute that ever will
be needed in the future but I would like to start discussion on the
attributes that are most commonly used. More complex data can of course be
linked using XPointer/XLink.

Maybe there is also existing work available from the "cavedata" group
around Peter Mathews that tries to standardize on field definitions.
