Well, this might be the right channel to ask:

Does anybody know where these (heavily used) acronyms are explained for developers and users? i18n, L10n and a11y are not self explaining, shouldn't they go into Glossary (maybe "General Technical Terms")?

i18n == "internationalization" ("i" + 18 letters + "n")
L10n == "localization" ("L" + 10 letters + "n"; upper case L is used to distinguish it from the numeral 1 (one))
a11y == "accessibility" ("a" + 11 letters + "y")
