[CF-metadata] standard name table update - direction of wind gust

Dear all,

In June, I raised a topic about the creation of wind_from_direction_of_gust.
There was some comments, but at the end, from my point of view, it was
agreed.

After 3 updates of the table (june 27th, july 25th and september 19th),
and despite
a message I sent on august 23rd, it is still not published.

I guess that all the people that are working to maintain the CF list and
the CF convention are
probably doing this on a best effort basis, in addition to their usual work.
That's why I'm annoyed to write a message to somehow complain, but it's
also very
frustating to wait so long to have an (agreed) standard name published.
(And I'm not an exception, I know one person in the same situation).

That being said, I hope that this new standard name for the direction of
wind gust, as well
as the other pending standard names, will be included in the next update.


Best regards
