RPR FOM Version 0.6 Review

• Changes
• SCR 11 - Add note about use of timestamp
• SCR 20 - Base Entity class definition
• SCR 21 - Symmetry between civil military
• SCR 22 - Remove DesignatorID
• SCR 23/24 - Emitter event IDs
• SCR 28 - Publish only at leaf nodes
• SCR 29 - Enumerated data name conventions
• Issues
• EmitterBeam is not a leaf node, but should be
  publishable
• There are objects that are emitter beams, but not
  a member of any subclass of EmitterBeam
