I've started a page on the wiki (which everyone in the community can edit) to capture any terminology that we use for future inclusion in the documentation. The assorted SCA specifications define plenty of terminology and I'm not proposing that that is repeated here. It would be useful, however, to capture any new terms that we use in the Tuscany or any cases where we have interpreted SCA terminology in a particular way. Heres the link.
