Hello! I'm reading with some interest the tempest that's a-blowin' on -chat, and as a newbie, I just got here and I'm wondering what the heck these people are talking about. A few questions (not -questions questions, just newbie questions): What's bikeshedding, or a bikeshed disagreement? What's the heck are GEOM and SMP? What's a WIKI? Anybody know a dictionary of these acronyms that I read all the time? I can figure out 90% of them but some of them (like PITA*) leave me mystified...
