Description of the change: (free-text)
Adding an attribute named title to the targetResourceAttributes group.


Rationale for the change:
The targetResourceAttributes are used for elements like link, remoteContent, itemRef etc. which are very similar to the link element of HTML5 or Atom. Therefore it would make sense to have also a title attribute which is provided by HTLM5 and Atom.


Reference to related IPTC discussion(s) (on Yahoo groups etc):
See email "Add @title to link" and the notes of the 17 February conference call on the NAR-dev Yahoo group.

Formalised change request: 

 Add this attribute to the Target Resource Attribute Group:

Title Name Card  Datatype  Definition
Title title 0..1 xs:string A short natural language name for the targeted resource.
