+### historical note -- april 2014
+# the myslice chaps rightfully complained about the following discrepency
+# they found that
+# * read operations (resolve) expose stuff like e.g. 'reg-researchers', but that
+# * write operations (register, update) need e.g. 'researcher' to be set - it ignores 'reg-researchers'
+#
+# the 'normalize' helper functions below aim at ironing this out
+# however in order to break as few as possible we essentially make sure that *both* fields are set
+# upon entering the write methods (so again register and update) because some driver code
+# might depend on the presence of, say, 'researcher'
+
+# registry calls this 'reg-researchers'
+# some drivers call this 'researcher'
+# this is even more confusing as people might use 'researchers'
