Hi, Shinobu,

Thanks for your suggestion. When using PyCharm as the IDE, one issue is that if we use abbreviation for the word to name the function or variables, there is some PEP8 promotion that you'd better to name it in a whole word, but not abbreviation.

Best Regards
Chaoyi Huang ( Joe Huang )

One of examples is:

"""
 tricircle/db/api.py
"""
authorize_quota_class_context(context, class_name):

# This could become:

auth_quota_class_ctx(ctx, class_name):

# If we put some comment for this, this also could become:

"""
  Function: Ensure a request has right permission to given the project.
  @ctx: user context
  @class: class name
"""
auth_quota_ctx(ctx, class):

Point here is, honestly not only name but also appropriate length of comment.
What do you think?

Cheers,
Shinobu
