>From the discussion thread "Casing: RdfTerm or RDFTerm" [1] there were two
possible casing conventions for acronyms that found some support. I would
like thus to call for a vote to determine the preference of the PPMC.

Variant 1:
Acronyms are treated like normal words, i.e. only the first character is
uppercased.

Variant 2:
If possible acronyms are cased as they appear in the specs (default
casing), if they appear in a position where an uppercase first letter is
required (and this letter is not uppercase in the default casing) then only
this letter is uppercased, if they appear in a position where a lowercase
first letter is required then the whole acronym is lowercased. Where
obvious readability improvements result a different casing can be chosen.

Please indicate your preference:

[ ] I prefer variant 1
[ ] I prefer variant 2
[ ] I oppose to both

The winning variant shall be voted  for acceptance in a binary yes/no vote.
This step can be skipped if a variant has a majority of the votes already
and nobody asks for the additional vote.

The vote is open for 72 hours.

Cheers,
Reto
