To add: not usal abbreviations (write in bracket what it is standing for)
E.g. when I had written FPGA (Fine Pitch BGA) it would have been clear
that I meant FBGA the packed layout and not Field Programmable Gate Array
GSM, GPRS, and GPS does have also abbreviations that would be unknows
for most of us - a abbreviations glossary would help, just started

increments are wellcome :)
