[ADMIN] codes

1) Re, the code list, K-H is right.... but the point 
of having the longer list is that if we name the 
official code FT, someone is gonna type FTFB. 
or FB1 or something. So I was trying to 
support them all. Additionally, some of the ones 
previously proposed were too specific (SG2 
where I see SG appear frequently for one 
example).  

I too agree we should have certain core ones 
and I'd probably drop about half the ones in 
my proposed list.... if it met with general 
approval. I don't actually have any authority in 
these matters, and I'd be curious if Matt S has 
any opinions on the matter. I think a short list 
of no more than 10-12 entries (hence 
rememberable) would be best. 

My preferred list:
OFFICIAL - covers announcements, rules 
proclamations, etc. from Jon (his own fief 
exclusively) (perhaps we use GZG instead but 
something tells me this will show up in subject 
lines for other reasons...)
SG - Stargrunt 
FT - Full Thrust (any flavour)
DS - Dirtside
FMAS - FMA Skirmish 
ADMIN - list related stuff, from the list-admin or 
about the list
CON - announcements about conventions like 
ECC/WCC/Others
OT - off topic (this might be a default.....)
B5 - Babylon 5 or EFSB related material
HIST - future history of some flavour

That's 10 and I think it covers all that matters. 

2) Oerjan, I can't expand KNG for you. Ask 
whoever has the Dutch Kingdom in the pedia.... 
I picked it up somewhere and figured it 
translated to something in Dutch but I don't 
know. I could have just imagined it period... 
anyone help out here? I think Tom Pope was 
the Dutch Kingdom dude.... or maybe it was 
someone else?
