I've uploaded to /incoming/gloss in the Dante server the following 8 files:

gloss.sty gloss.tex glsbase.bib glsplain.bst glsshort.bst readme sample.bib sample.tex

They are still under lppl and they should replace the files currectly under macros/latex/contrib/supported/gloss. From the readme: ================== Gloss is a package which allows the creation of glossaries using bibTeX. This approach has several advantages:

• bibTeX is available in every platform where TeX is.
• Glossary entries can be stored in databases, and you needn't rewrite the definitions.
• There are a lot of tools for managing bibTeX databases.
• bibTeX is a programable tool and you can define your own styles for acronyms, symbols, and so on.

==================

Release 1.5.2 fixes a bug (sometimes the space following gloss was gobbled).

Thanks for the update, I installed it as requested.
