Discussion and voting: Coding convention : getLdapUrl or getLDAPURL ?

I am being entirely honest when I say I strongly dislike camel case acronyms, and I find it less easy on the eyes than all caps, because it doesn't read naturally to me. I don't like camel case if the words aren't words. I truly favor getLDAPURL and find it easier to look at and understand.

But I'm fairly aware that Java has a pretty strong bias toward camel case, so if we're willing to do the refactoring then it seems clear that's the right choice. Among the things about Java that bug me, this isn't all that high on the list really, so I can deal.
