   Does this make sense and have I missed anything?

All sounds logical to me...except that numbering scheme. I would start at 0 for 2000, just to keep it simple (see next line)

   Is it correct to think of BrickFest PDX 2004 as the 5th BrickFest? (That’s how I think of it.)

Technically yes, but I hate when people think like that, ‘cuz it makes my brain hurt (my brain is slow and can’t take too much at once. Thinking in terms of 04=5th is like opening up ten browser windows simultaneously. It’ll happen, but not for a loong time.)

But, I have no alternative solutions.

   My only problem with these abbreviations is that TSL for 1000steine-Land tends to confuse me because TSL is also my initials. Any suggestions on alternatives for this one?

1SL? 1KSL?

In organizing my photos, I've been using descriptive identifiers such as "BricksWest-2003", "NWBrickCon-2002", and "BrickFestPDX-2004" in directory names and filenames. These get the job done, but they're becoming unweildy to deal with in long names (...) (20 years ago, 20-Mar-04, to lugnet.events, lugnet.general)
