I remember an interview with RMS many years ago; he was asked what he thought 
was the most pressing problem in computer science.  

After thinking for a moment, he replied, "The fact that there are only about 
19,000 three-letter acronyms."

Networking folks, especially in the SP arena, often refer to 'best current 
practices', or BCPs, meaning the features/techniques/architectural principles 
one ought to implement as a matter of course when 
designing/deploying/operating/maintaining networks and their supporting 
ancillary infrastructure.
