I prefer we use a centralized glossary/document to generate individual
glossaries (via scripting or improving Sphinx). This will be a lot
easier to maintain.
The DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) calls this an AV-2 which is a
singular artifacr across the project for consistencyt

That said, you need glossaries in documents and automating pulling
definitions and acronyms out automatically producing a glossary and
acronym list from the master AV-2 is desirable. No one wants to
reference a standalone glossary.
There can be issues if definitions change over time because the single
AV-2 can't deal with old and new. It gets confusing. I have seen a
project where the AV-2 included history like the Oxford English
Dictionary. It was dreadful.
That's a lot of background to say this isn't a RTEMS unique problem. A
central database of acronyms and definitions would be a good thing. If
grep is sufficient to find word use to trigger inclusion in a document
specific glossary, great.
Good, so my proposal is this:
1. I move c-user/glossary.rst to common/glossary.rst and include this
file as is in c-user.
2. The glossary.rst for the other documents is generated from
common/glossary.rst based on the :term: usage. This can start simple,
e.g. only look at the *.rst files in the document directory (e.g. no
recursive includes).
