[MR] Kingdom Roll of Arms Project - Thanks

[Atlantian Clerk of Precedence]

Mistress Eibhlin,

I have passed on your thanks to William and his team - I know he 
appreciates it.  :)

The "Kingdom" Roll of Arms project is something of a misnomer - it's not 
actually for a single kingdom, as the name implies. William Castille is 
from Lochac, and started out by emblazoning the arms of all SCA kingdoms 
and groups, and then moved on to the populace of all the kingdoms that 
did not already have a roll of arms in place.

William provided me with about 1800 device images, just before last 
Pennsic, of blazons registered through Atlantia.  I was able to match up 
about 1200 with names in the OP.  As folks with registered blazons are 
given awards and added to the OP, or existing names are matched with the 
individual's registered name, I add in device images from the stockpile 
if I have them. 

Now, I know they are not all correct - I expect William and his 
volunteers were quite bleary-eyed after looking at all those images!  So 
if you find a problem with a device image vs. the blazon (especially all 
you armory heralds out there!), please let me know so that the image can 
be corrected, or at least pulled from the site until a corrected image 
can be made.  This should be a resource for scribes and budding heralds, 
and therefore what is out there should be as correct as possible.  Any 
help you can provide is appreciated.  :)

In service,
Signora Cassandra Arabella Giordani, Sea Stag Pursuivant
