Bug#781694: release-notes: cobwebby relnotes-glossary



Package: release-notes
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The glossary of acronyms/initialisms in release-notes.dbk could do
with some maintenance.  The file still provides expansions for the
terms "ACPI", "ALSA", "APM", "GPG", "IDE", "NBD", "OSS", "RPC", and
"UUID", which don't appear to be mentioned anywhere else; but on the
other hand there's no entry for "UEFI".

Someday it should probably get a proper clearout, but for now I attach
a patch that just adds an expansion for UEFI.
