[Ansteorra] Job descriptions (was Re: Ansteorra Digest, Vol 26, Issue 14)

[digigirl]

Personally, I prefer the usage of standard usage words (i.e.,
registration, event steward), or actual medieval terms.  I find
SCA-created words such as "feast-o-crat" to be... I don't know....
kinda cheesy, I guess.

Real words exist. Why do we need to make them up?  

This topic applies to lots of things in the SCA - for instance, why do
some children need to be called "smalls?"  Y'know, in period, they
were called.... children.

My two cents...
