Hi Paul,

This is a reminder in sent as a patch.

I find the indexing tag you put to "Non-Blocking" looks strange.
This entry talks about some classes of forward-progress guarantees,
not much about synchronization.
Also, the existing tags of NBS are \IXacr{}.  You therefore
need to use \glsuseriii{nbs} as shown below in a separate entry
of "Non-Blocking Synchronization (NBS)".

I think NBS deserves its own entry in the Glossary.

        Thanks, Akira
