The pieces that I previously suggesting naming Macette, Bezette, Rigette, and so on have been dropped altogether. The Macette might come back as another name in conjunction with renaming the Tribune and Trifle as pieces with et Bishop binding formed of compononents with weaker bindings. The Dogrose, Primrose, Rockrose, Rosebed, Rosebush, Rosebower, and Rosebowl - and similarly prefixed and sufixed Macels, Bezras, wet cetera - have gone the same way. Ambrose, Ambmacel, et cetera have now been dropped twice, with the pieces for which I suggested the name first time renamed and those second time dropped.
