Have implemented a solution to extending data.frame with metadata that I was tackling the other day. This raises several open questions on how we do the implementation, including whether we restrict this extension to providing the attributeList-level metadata (or a subset thereof), or if we allow higher level nodes of eml to act as extensions of data.frame (e.g. dataTable, which provides additional metadata attributes such as entityTitle, as well as the physical description of the csv file.
Matt raises good points about what attribute data we want. Most we have addressed already, but this does raise additional challenges as well. See issue #47 for details and further discussion.

Started catching up on some backlog of warning signals literature.
- Litzow et al, Ecology
- Scheff et al, JTB
- Corrado et al,
- Kuhn et al, arXiv. Because something is a event (e.g. Thanksgiving) doesn’t make it a “critical transition”… What’s the state-space? The slowly-changing parameter? What’s the model?
