Establish conventions

NOTE: If you are exporting EDLs to Aurora Edit, the Aurora Edit workstation
must be able to resolve the Profile MDI name (present in the EDL) to the IP address
of the Profile XP system to which the MDI connects. The recommended solution is
to map the MDI name to the Profile IP address in the Aurora Edit workstation’s
host table. Another option is to name the Profile MDI name the same as the Profile
host name, but this is only an option for systems in their initial configuration,
before any customer assets have been added.
