Heh...

Isn't what there is now:

	This document should present most acronyms you're likely to find
	on the Cygwin mailing list, with an explanation and a brief
	history for some. If you can't find an acronym you're looking for
	here, try another acronym resource, like The Canonical Acronym
	List or AcronymFinder.com.

and

	I will add more acronyms as I encounter them on the list.

clear enough?  Guess not...  I'll think of some better ways of saying
this.
	Igor
P.S. What's OCLA? ;-)
