Jiwoong,

In my view, any acronynm that would not be instantly understood by 98%
of the IETF should be defined the first time it appears in the
document.  This seems like just plain common sense and courtesy to the
reader.

The RFC Editor has started to enforce this usage in the Abstract
section of an RFC.  It might not be a bad idea to enforce it
everywhere.
