(Granted, I think "BlIP" is easier to remember than "BlIDP" :-).<BR/><BR/>I tend to use "BL" as an abbreviation for "Baseline". I'm going to keep doing that for now. (I'm not sure yet if some principles will refer to 'B' for "Build" versus for Baseline --Don't be surprised if I use "CL" for Codeline.) After I flesh out more of these principles, I'll revisit whether that's necessary. <BR/><BR/>I can see that mixed case look horrid for sans-serif fonts (especially for lowercase 'l' versus uppercase 'I').<BR/>So I'll try to stick to uppercase from now on (maybe I'll even edit this blog-entry). <BR/><BR/>I was wondering if the "P" should be mandatory for each abbreviation. That is, do I call it "BLIDP" or the "BLID principle"? (same goes for "BLIM" versus "BLIMP")<BR/><BR/>I sort of like it better without the P at the end. Thus far I'd have BLREP (still have the P here for reProducubility), BLID, and BLIM.Brad Appletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136106921504315995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10280668.post-1125988335246135732005-09-06T01:32:00.000-05:002005-09-06T01:32:00.000-05:00Brad,Could you please use reasy-to-remember abbrev...Brad,<BR/>Could you please use reasy-to-remember abbreviations of the principles. For example:<BR/><BR/>BREP (Baseline Reproducibility Principle)<BR/>BIDP (Baseline Identification Principle)<BR/>BIMP (Baselnie Immutibility Principle)<BR/><BR/>Especially mixing uppercase and lowercase is hard to read.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>Frank.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05338420995938912564noreply@blogger.com
