Yes, I object.  If there is no consensus on acronyms, we should stick
with what is in the current RFC 6698, rather than forwarding an
acronym proposal for adoption as a standard, even though we can't
agree on what it should say.  It's unnecessary, which probably
explains the paucity of responses, and divisive among those who did
respond.  It should be abandoned.
