Glossary for Bahmi and health care in general

Did you already consider to create a glossary page in the Bahmni wiki? For me as novice in the field of health care this would be helpful.

In particular I had some issues understanding the exact meaning of ODP and IDP.

I think these two glossaries created by OpenMRS should help: http://en.flossmanuals.net/openmrs-guide/appendix-a-glossary/ https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+Glossary

The training material also addresses this, so once that is out, hopefully the need for novices to understand Health Care domain will also be met.

But, I guess, a glossary will be helpful – even for people trying to do translations for Bahmni.

The reviews are controversial but it might be worth an evaluation.
