i wanted to start collecting some terms for glossary as some questions
arose:

i am wondering on how to realize this. should it be more of an index,
with a crosslink to the place where it gets explained or like this:

MFC: ...merge from current, action... <a href="..">read handbook..</a>

with a short explanation and a link when there is a place where it gets
explainend more detailed.

should there be a certain "treshhold" like, only use freebsd specific
terms or not trivial terms or should we include every term like "unix,
ports, packages..."?
