I am encountering the following checkstyle error while building my code :
```
<error line="46" severity="warning" message="Abbreviation in name
'taskID' must contain no more than '2' consecutive capital
letters."
source="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.naming.AbbreviationAsWordInNameCheck"/>
```
This error, I figured is because of the [AbbreviationAsWordInName setting
in
storm_checkstyle.xml](https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/7043dea8e487d55510c120ada39d18b5bd08451a/storm-buildtools/storm_checkstyle.xml#L197).
The variable taskID has 2 consecutive capital letters and this creates a
warning (which is a violation and hence the build does not go through). [The
default setting according to the checkstyle documentation is
3](http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/config_naming.html#AbbreviationAsWordInName).
Is there a specific reason we are setting it to 1?
