Hello folks,
two short observations:
*) By eliminating the abreviations " (WAP)", " (NAS/SAN)" sixteen
characters can be put to better use, since these are so well
known. I see more merit in keeping PBX since it is not built
from initials only.
*) A recursive description may be intellectually pleasing, but
is never estetically pleasing, and anyway the borderline
to ridicule is not constant among people encountering the
particular notion. The need to explain GNU again and again
among various authors and writers is a particular bad example!
Disagreement is acknowledged!
