Evolution glossary



Hi,
	I am just learning docbook right now, and I'm working on the Evolution glossary right now.  Would someone look over this, edit it a bit, and let me know.  It's not even close to done yet, but I want to try to weed out mistakes now before I have to fix a mistake for 100 definitions.  Just saving myself time in the future.
Thanks
Kevin
