It's an interesting suggestion, but I'm sort of where Paige is.  I've not
used 006 for cartographic resources.  I've only ever used this field for
electronic versions (like DVD) of cartographic resources.  And yes, it
would be hard to tell one projection from another, which gets us back to
the fixed field dilemma.

Fortunately, I've only had this one instance I described.  I think applying
the same method for the projection code as for language code in the fixed
field makes the most sense.  Use the code for the first named.  Multiple
languages can be accounted for in the 041 and 546 fields.  Multiple
projections can be accounted for in the 255 fields, which is a repeatable
field.

But again, Rick, you propose something that if it recurs could be
considered as another option.
