The CMS Glossary has 585 proposed terms. 230 now have extensive definitions.

We have prototyped the glossary-as-a-service feed for several CMS-related sites. Editorial details are at CM Professionals > Glossary

It is playing now on Content-Wire in the UK.

The CMS Glossary on CMS Wiki is a controlled vocabulary of terms used by CM Professionals, a content management community of practice.

It is also a demonstration of the CM best practice called single-source publishing.

CMS Glossary definitions are written using collaborative authoring tools with version control at our companion site CMS Wiki.

Definitions are then extracted by a web service (a connector or adapter) that converts them to syndicated information feeds suitable for use on any CMS-related site. They can appear in an iframe, or open a new popup glossary window with a CSS stylesheet to match a site.

Instructions for embedding links in your text that will call these info feeds are available here.
