[mch2021-orga] For the sake of avoiding namespace collisions

[Julius ter Pelkwijk]

What if we just stick with naming locations to a name between A to Z
depending on its location, instead of inventing different names constantly?
I still have horror thoughts when I think of the Graan voor Visch area in
Hoofddorp (each area had a number in the 1000 range, streets had a number
in the 100 range and the houses had a number between 0 and 99).

So, if we cannot work together with the naming scheme, postservice will
most likely give each field a number, a direction between 1 and 9 (zero if
it's the field itself) and a tent number starting from the clockwise
direction. I bet even the most drunk person will be able to remember a
6-digit number...

Greetings,

Julius
