Although package descriptions should be targeted on the _potential_ user. So whoever is wondering what MRI is, is not a potential user ;-)I disagree. I think any user should at least have an idea that this package is targetted at some specific field and is probably not for them. It is probably hard to always convey this in the short description, though.
I'm perfectly in line with Michael: We should not put riddles on our users and the user should immediately be able to see, that this package is not for him. For an unknown abbreviation this is not the case because it might happen that it is perfectly for him - but the abbreviation is just unknown (perhaps in a language which he is not perfectly sure etc.).
