I suppose these are mostly for the header (where they are already more or
less maintained right now) or would you put a version of the resource data
with every single device entry?
The "ddr_vocabulary" sort of exists, it was added by OpenDDR and I think
it's called "from" or similar. That contains values like "ODDR" or (if we
add new ones) "DeviceMap".

I don't think it is very heavily referred to, mostly meta-data, so if it
makes sense for better understanding such a field could be named
differently, e.g. ddr_vocabulary, too.

Do you have all of these in your existing data, too? E.g. where would we
generate such guid (which except a few cases is a rather MS/.NET feature
btw;-)

Most others I don't see the "use-case" of these, they sound fairly dynamic,
e.g. for a particular session.  That is nothing a single device "class"
would hold, would it?

Maybe you can explain these 3 a bit more.

Thanks
