> +A Job represents a request we send to Glacier to read data. When a job

> +There are two different kinds of jobs:
> +* Inventory retrieval: Used to list the archives within a vault.
> +* Archive retrieval: Used to read an archive.
> +
> +**Note**: Inventories are updated only once every 24 hours. The archive list 
> in an inventory may be outdated.
> +
> +There are also two different ways to discover if a job has finished: by 
> polling or setting a Notification-Configuration to the vault. This 
> Notification-Configuration will notify Amazon SNS when is the data ready to 
> be retrieved. Only one Notification-Configuration can be set per Vault.
> +
> +At the time of writing only polling is supported by the jclouds Glacier

> +Due to the Glacier's nature, many of the BlobStore view methods are will be

Could you add a note, "many Glacier users maintain their own application index 
of Glacier archives to address this".
