TODO notes are provided using the todonotes package.
Acronyms are provided using the acronym package.
They are defined in the file content/beginningContent/acronyms.tex, using the syntax:
\acro{key}[short]{long} Define a new acronym.
When it comes to using an already defined acronym, the following syntax is used:
\ac{key} Display an already defined acronym.
\acs{key} Display only the short version of an acronym.
\acl{key} Display only the long version of an acronym.
\acf{key} Displays the full (long and short) version of an acronym.
\ac[slf]p{key} Same as \ac[slf], but displays the acronym in plural form.
Unfortunately the list of acronyms is not automatically sorted. You probably want to define them in alphabetical order.
