In a previous message, Peter H. Coffin typed vigorously:

>Wild guess says "Announcement"...

This is just one of a handful of commonly accepted prefixes for
designating certain types of messages on mailing lists and newsgroups.

Others are:

[OT] Off Topic
[WTB] Want To Buy
[WTT] Want To Trade
[FA] For Auction
[FS] For Sale

Any others I'm missing?

Victor, maybe we could add this information to the Newtontalk FAQ page:
