Re: [dita-lightweight-dita] (Not so) silly question about acronym
I admit that I use "lwd-" as a concise, namespace prefix for many
of my test materials and folders, and I've been the person using
LwD as finger-saving acronym in my communications. I could see
using LW-DITA in more formal OASIS versions down the road, but
that is still too many keystrokes for chats and notes for now, in
my opinion. I see it as a development vs branding issue.

Dear Lightweight DITA SC people,
As I work on my current writing project (which is,
surprise, about Lightweight DITA), I wonder if we have an
“official” acronym. Some of us use LwD, and others do LW-DITA.
We also had, briefly, hopes on FINCH, but that puppy died
shortly after the DITA NA conference in Chicago last year.
So… is there an official acronym? Do we need one?
Best,
Carlos
