Good question. Here's my personal view (and only that, for now)... I like
"SteerCo" for the Steering Committee. I've also seen StC batted around.

I would rather not have to change LSC's initials if we can avoid it. Maybe we
can't though...

I'd rather not too. I do however recall back when the LSC was forming (or had
formed?) Steve Bliss mentioned to me it was better to call it the 'Language
Standards Committee' instead of 'LDraw.org Standards Committee.' IIRC, at the
time I believed there was too much momentum in the name from all of the online
discussion to change it.

SteerCo sounds good to abbreviate the Steering Committee. StC is a little more
ambiguous, and not as pronounceable.


Whatever it's called could it be called something quickly, before
you reinforce every bad opinion I have about decisions made by
committee.

You have more important things to sort out such as a parts
library license. My opinion is they should be placed in
the 'public domain', it would allow for maximal uptake of
the library without 6 months of arguing about how to make
an ldraw specific legally binding license to accomplish the
same task.
