Hi,

I'm working on vectors of varying sizes on GF(4) and I'm currently trying to 
implement the code given in 
http://www.iks.kit.edu/home/grassl/codetables/BKLC/BKLC.php?q=4&n=8&k=2

The first step (Extend the QRCode over GF(4) of length 11) should give me a 
[12, 6, 6] linear code - vectors of length 12, dimension 6, minimum (Hamming) 
distance 6.

But the execution
sage: codes.ExtendedQuadraticResidueCode(11, GF(4,'a'))
Linear code of length 12, dimension 11 over Finite Field in a of size 2^2

gives me a linear code of dimension 11. If my field size is prime, then I do 
get a code with dimension 6. According to that source, the dimension should be 
6 with field size 4 as well. Why isn't it?

I'm running Sage Version 6.1.1, Release Date: 2014-02-04 on Ubuntu 12.04.

Thank you in advance,
Gerli
