It captures all the information you need (unless you need some kind of graphics) and it is easily transformed into anything you like. I'd suggest that if anything is captured, it just be kept in plain text until things settle out enough to decide it needs a more sophisticated format. Otherwise, the whole thing could get bogged down in superficial format issues when the important part is just capturing the information.
