No, we don't. This actually bothers me everyday, but I keep 
forgetting to ask everyone about it.
Does anyone object to shortening the prefixes?
Proposal:
* [microformats-discuss]
 * [mf-dis]
 * [mdiscuss]
 * [mdis]
* [microformats-announce]
 * (follow same convention as used above)
Thoughts? I want feedback because this is likely to break lots of 
people's filtering rules.
