I have taken the liberty of composing an acronym list of common
abreviations that are associated with this list. You can tell
I am tired of waiting for my DAK since I am taking time to
make this list. Please feel free to make additions or corrections.
I think it would be appropriate to add this to the mailing list
FAQ.
