There's also the DIN placement, 90 deg and 20cm apart, sounds a lot like ORTF.

DIN? Mics 90 degrees facing away from each other or towards each other?

Yes, DIN. DIN stands for Deutsche Industrie Normung or something like that... anyway, yes, place the capsules 20cm apart, and angle them (outwards) 90 degrees.

Blumlein stereo uses a pair of coincident bi-directional ("figure 8") mics, angled at 90 degrees. Imagine two "8"'s, where they are crossed at the centers. Usually with Blumlein, you end up having to put one mic right side up, and the other one upside down, directly on top of the first one, in order to get the capsules as close together as possible, but again, rotated 90 degrees.
