No. The style guide says camelcase, but it doesn't specify how to deal with
abbreviations. Personally, I think that it should be dealt with on a case by
case basis, since what works best depends on the abbreviation, but in general,
I prefer all caps.

There's also the question when having abbreviations in a method name:
sendToHTTP
or
sendToHttp
In general think abbreviations should be avoided except when the
abbreviation is better known, e.g. HTTP, FTP and so on. I like camlecase
better than all caps both for class names and method names.
