Dear Members!

Some days ago I announced the CMN-lexicon:
New function: lexicon

Now I need your input. Please post you suggestions for entries for the lexicon.
Like this:
Main word: CMN
Short description: The Classic Machinery Network
Long description (if necessary): CMN is a friendly place where people from all over the world meets and discusses new and old machinery.


The main word does not have to be an abbreviation.
It can be a technical word which is interesting and needs to be explained.
