Should the barcode be included or not?

[eriksjolund]

Right now the barcode is included in the st_exp_protobuf format.
Maybe we should leave it out of the format?

To remove it, the file st_exp.proto would have to be modified here:

message Spot {
  // We limit the total number of spots to (2^32-1) as the spot id is uint32_t.
  // Therefore we limit the grid coordinates to be max (2^16-1).
  required uint32 xCoordGrid = 1;  // integer in range: 0 ... (2^16-1) 
  required uint32 yCoordGrid = 2;  // integer in range: 0 ... (2^16-1)
  required float xCoordPhyscial = 3;  // millimeter
  required float yCoordPhyscial = 4;  // millimeter
  required string barcode = 5;
}
