[Libvirt-cim] Attention webmaster: please expand acronyms in http://libvirt.org/CIM/.

[Adam Richter]

The "what is libvirt-cim" page at http://libvirt.org/CIM/ contains numerous unexpanded acronyms.  Usuaully, a "what is" web page is likely to be used by people with less subject matter expertise than other web pages on a topic, so it is especially important to expand acronyms in such web pages.  In this case, the current text is quite terse, so there is plenty of space to expand the acronyms.

So, if there are no complaints from the libvirt-cim mailing list (which I have cc'ed) in the next day or so, I suggest you change the text of http://libvirt.org/CIM/ to something like this:




What is libvirt-cim?

Libvirt-CIM is a CIM (Common Information Model) provider for managing
linux virtualization platforms using libvirt. It is written in C and
should work in any CIMOM (CIM Object Manager) that supports CMPI
(Common Management Programming Inferface) 2.0 providers. The intent is
to implement the SVPC (Systems Virtualization Partitioning and
Clustering) class model currently available in the DMTF (Distributed
Managment Task Force) Experimental 2.16 schema.




This email may inspire suggestions of other improvements for the future.  If that happens, please bear in mind that those suggestions probably will not block your making this text update in the meantime.

Thanks for your attention to this.
