Subject: Re: Naming of the sides (discussion of castling)

WhisperzQ: Bobby Fischer had named castlings in FRC / Chess960 a-castling and h-castling. The WNCA has decided to name castlings from their target file c-castling or g-castling. To make it independent from the board size and different castling variants it could help to name it alpha-castling and omega-castling.
