Ticket #1 – description
v1 v2 1 1 A user sends a message containing a sequence of two or more capital letters (an acronym) followed by a question mark. This plugin will check for such a sequence and, if it finds one, query an external data source for the meaning of the acronym.

The message will contain the acronym followed by the retrieved meaning. 2 2 3 '''Potential Data Sources''' 4 3 '''Potential Data Sources'''[[BR]] 5 4 [http://research.silmaril.ie/acronyms Internet Acronym Server][[BR]] 6 Plans to have a web service at some point.
