.erc file extension #56

Open nuest opened 6 years ago

Since BagIt is the desired outer container, an ERC can readily be zipped as a single file. Consider .erc as a file extension for the ZIP archive (instead of .zip).

an unkown file extension combined with a well known magic number might confuse archival automatisms and may even look suspicious to scanners. other than that, I think, it's a good idea to mark the erc as such
