Keep the format simple, and very relaxed. Let software figure out if they can do anything
with it or not.
Uppercase, lowercase, free flowing text. Just keep the tags standard to start with. Maybe
we can have some tags with a more formalized value, if needed, such as a POS: value with
LAT/LONG if people want to add that?
Hmm, that looks a LOT like an LDIF file. :)
Well, it was just a suggestion, and one that I found easily human readable and editable.
:-)
But I don't have a problem with something looking like LDIF, as long as noone ever
expects me to actually feed something into LDAP, or even use LDAP. :-)
