 * I’m trying to figure out how WordPress is pulling text into the Description field
   in the media uploader. When I export pictures from my photo archive, and then
   upload them to WordPress, the information that was originally in the Caption 
   field in the archive ends up in the Description field in the media uploader.
 * So my question basically boils down to which IPTC fields map to what fields in
   WordPress?
