After a short discussion between Mete and I, we decided to create a temporary page for glossary. In order to not have any confusion and prevent synchronization errors until glossary is complete we will make the edits here. Later on once we are done and reviewer(s) gives their approval, we will delete this page and add final version to requirement page. We should be able finish this today and send it to review phase. If there is anything missing or a term that should be explained any feedback or edits from other team members are welcome.
