Glossary #5

Closed daviddias closed 10 months ago

daviddias commented 8 years ago

It would be good to keep a glossary close of all the terms we might use during the discussions, to make sure that there are no misinterpretations, specially in a discussion that involves so many people from different groups with different backgrounds.

Example: Authenticated vs Certified https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/154

We can start by adding descriptions to this issue and them compile a markdown file, sounds good? Thoughts? @RichardLitt you probably have a very good suggestion on how to do this that makes it easy searchable and reference'able.

RichardLitt commented 8 years ago

I think this is a good idea.

I think that these should go into the existing glossary, at ipfs/glossary. I think we can work on search and reference-able when ctrl+f breaks down; this won't happen for a few hundred entries, though.

How does it sound, putting things in there?

@RichardLitt sounds good to me :)

This should be closed after there is a note added to the README in this repository about the glossary and other relevant repositories for pubsub.

Apparently, this is not the first time this idea comes around:

Closed those and added their content to the repository.
