Description

As suggested by flicstar [1], OSGeoLive is full of acronyms. In order to help non GIS people using OSGeoLive we can provide a glossary.

Sethg suggested the sphinx syntax: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/directives.html#glossary-directive

Also to note once the glossary is in place any of the pages can automatically link to the relevant term using the following syntax:

:term:WMS

This will mean all acronyms and geospatial terms need only be explained in one place.
