It's tricky to have a hard rules for consistent acronyms in CamelCase, some inconsistency will eventually sneak in to break the symmetry.
In Commons RDF we faced this in that we had an interface "RDFTermFactory", "Triple" and "IRI" -- but then I added JSON-LD Java bindings and didn't want to shout JSONLDRDFTermFactory. I ended up with a mix:.. JsonLdRDFTermFactory - which although inconsistent, goes nicely with the other implementation classes like JsonLdTriple and JsonLdIRI. [1] OpenSSL is very commonly known as "OpenSSL" (as if it's one word) - so I would say: +1 OpenSSLCipher +0 OpenSslCipher -0 OpensslCipher -1 OpenSSLcipher [1] https://github.com/apache/incubator-commonsrdf/tree/jsonld-java/jsonld-java/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/rdf/jsonldjava On 30 June 2016 at 07:36, Benedikt Ritter <brit...@apache.org> wrote: > Sun, Dapeng <dapeng....@intel.com> schrieb am Do., 30.
