General guidance for the Appendix C (Glossary) includes:

- Add statement: “Unless otherwise stated, the terms and definitions contained in this glossary are for the purposes of this document only.”

- Leverage applicable definitions from the DoDAF AV-2. These do not have to be identical as some terms will apply only to the document or the DoDAF architecture; however, terms that apply to both must be consistent.

- Definitions should first reflect terminology from the DOD Dictionary, if not then the Terminology Repository, both found at the DOD Terminology Webpage on the CAC-enabled Joint Electronic Library Plus “+” (https://jdeis.js.mil/jdeis/index.jsp?pindex=4) website.

- Any deviation from existing DOD Dictionary terms should be explained in the glossary. Term source must be identified following the definition.

- The DAU Glossary ((https://www.dau.edu/tools/dau-glossary) is an official source for acquisition related terms.
