UP? RUP? DRUP? XP?

[Marius Holm]

Hi guys.
Excuse my lack of knowledge about presumably crucial terms related to professional programming, being a hobby programmer myself, but could anyone tell me what these are?
(I bet DRUP is Distributed RUP, and XP must be something extreme or experienced, but... )
Or, you aren't all excited about the last Office version from MS?
Regards,
Marius
