I have not yet seen a wiki or place where it is super easy to find acronyms that are used in writing by some Fedora developers in random articles:
Here are some examples, ( some of which may be obscure or just informally used to simplify an article or antiquated or obsolete, etc. ):
AMA = Ask Me Anything
CFF = Contributor-Friendly Font ?? ( Relating to Opentype font, OTF )
CommOps = Fedora Community Operations
Copr = Cool Other Package Repo
GA = General Availability
FAD = Fedora Activity Days
FAmEMEA = Fedora Ambassadors of Europe, Middle East, and Africa
FAmSCo = Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee
FAS = Fedora Account System
FC = Font Config or fontconfig
FCAIC = Fedora Community Action and Impact Coordinator
FCL = Fedora Community Outreach and Impact Lead
FEMA = Fedora Election Management and Administration
FE-ML = Fedora Extras Mailing List ??
FESCo = Fedora Steering Committee
FOSS = Free & Open Source Software
FPC= Fedora Packaging Committee
FPgM =Fedora Program Manager
FPL = Fedora Project Leader
FUDCon = Fedora Users and Developer's Conference
LGC = Latin, Greek & Cyrillic
( relating to fonts )
OSAS = Opens Source and Standards
PR = Provision Request ???
( relating to packaging )
SHA-1 = Secure Hash Algorithm 1
SIG = Special Interest Group
SCM = Source Code Management
VCS = ?? ( relating to new proposed fonts )
There are probably many more, not counting all the normal Linux and computing software acronyms, and abbreviations to simplify writing or coding or naming of packages.
