Re: [tsc-devel] Metadata in TSC assets

I think including the origin of assets is a great idea.  I found it 
useful to include the URL of websites from which I found sound effects.
In some cases, we may not be able to find a URL, but including what we 
do know about the origin is a good idea.  Also, keep in mind that URL's 
may eventually go bad.

I'm a bit hesitant with the idea of getting the origin into every 
Inkscape file, as it sounds a bit tedious.  This would let the artists 
set it themselves really easily, though many of them will probably 
forget anyways.  Also, I'm not sure if there's an equivalent for this 
info within music files -- I think it might be more consistent just to 
use text files for both images and sound/music files.

It would make sense to make this change in the current repository before 
we start the new codebase.
