[Esip-preserve] Provenance and Context Content Spreadsheet

[Lynnes, Christopher S. (GSFC-6102)]

Rama,
  I would suggest you add a column noting possible restrictions on later distribution of items.  This would include source code release restrictions, as well as ITAR restrictions on most documents describing spacecraft details, for example.

John Moses and I worked on this together. We merged the items suggested by NASA (per John's and my presentation at the January meeting) and NOAA (from Ted Habermann and Donna McNamara). A few notes:
