Create FAQ for MDF

[Neumann-A]

As mentioned in #74 it might be a good idea to create a FAQ for MDF

with general questions like (some questions might already be answered by the spec but in a FAQ you also want those):

• What is MDF meant for?
• Why have MDF?
• Why use MDF? What advantages does MDF offer?

and more technical questions like:

• What does MDF consider an image?
• What does MDF consider an patch/frame?
• When is a patch a frame? When is a frame a new file? etc.
• My data is acquired as J x N x C x W how to handle it in MDFs N x J x C x W storage order?
• Why is group/dataset XYZ in the MDF?

feel free to add more questions and maybe also the answers.

If you are not satisfied with our introduction. Please improve it !!! Also please improve the Readme.md if you feel that these things are not answered.

All this should not be an FAQ. It should be explained in the specification.

The questions was not meant as criticism more like a general example of questions which would be included in a FAQ.

All this should not be an FAQ. It should be explained in the specification.

No and Yes. The whole idea of having a FAQ is to have fast access to some commonly asked or more complex questions (which are not easy to answer purely by the specification). The FAQ can also reference the specification with side and line number.

I am not against a dedicated FAQ. But lets please not explain things twice. Half of your questions above belong to the specification.

Just an example:
Somequestion?
Answer: This question is directly answered in the specification. Please see side X line Y (or even better have a html version of the spec and directly link it)
