VisualEditor/VisualEditor would most naturally be VEVE. I'm not sure if that's better or worse than GVED. It would mean that VE-Drupal would be VEDP, VE-WordPress would be VEWP, etc. Just a thought. mediawiki/core could be WIKI, but people might object. MWMW is rough, yes. Anyway, a foolish consistency and all that. :-) Maybe we can just specify a maximum character length? I think constraining ourselves a bit here is a good idea to ensure that the callsigns aren't crazy long, but I'm not sure a fixed length is absolutely necessary (though I do think it looks nicer).
