Wasn't there a Methods Comittee decision that Reverse Canterbury
Doubles was to be renamed Canterbury to avoid confusion ?!?

How about using a descriptor such as "Inverted" or "Retrograde" for
methods 
for which the place notation is the reverse of that for another
method? For 
example, the principle Quasar Maximus could be called Retrograde Orion

Maximus (Orion Maximus being the first half lead of Orion Surprise
Maximus).

Clearly it would be more sensible to call such methods "Reverse" and
use 
"Inverted" for what is currently called "Reverse", but perhaps that
would be 
a step too far for most ringers!
