Wiki updates

[Jesse Peterson]

Not quite done, but I've started on a few pages. Hopefully I'll get
some time soon to implement more of.

Note these suggestions really need some fact checking, or at least a
good once-over. One specific thing that needs to be added is the
"supported from/since" field for every page. Also, I did not add an
Archiving Supported/Extraction Supported section to any of the pages
becasue I do not know the status of that for each type of metadata.

What do people think of the layout of the pages? I tried to stick to
something somewhat templatized between the pages. Should there be an
"official" template?

I was going to create tickets/issues for the two unimplemented
metadata types and link to them from the pages but thought I'd check
if that makes sense first.

Placed here:

Thanks,

Thanks for the good work. I've put these in the wiki and did some
minor reformatting to match up with google's wiki syntax.
Unfortunately, it does not appear that we can make google's wiki
publically editable, since it basically is part of the source repository.

Please feel free to create issues for things. I'm inclined to
leave Tru64 unimplemented since it is no longer being updated
by DEC/Compaq/HP. Paid maintenance contracts will expire in 2010,
I believe, and it will be completely unsupported after that.

Here's three more. These three much more lean as I don't know as as
much about them (maybe there isn't that much to really document):
