8. doc.: IEEE 802.15-01/030r0 Submission 19 January 2001 James P. K. Gilb, MobilianSlide 8 Acronyms/Definitions All sub-editors and contributors must register acronyms to JPKG to prevent overloading Most TLA´s are already used, suggest using FLCA´s (Four Letter Count Acronyms) or LFULA´s (Length Five Unique Letter Acronyms) All members can and should suggest definitions for terms. If you don't understand it, likely others will not understand it either.
