File common/chapters/glossary.adoc:

https://gerrit.osmocom.org/#/c/12567/1/common/chapters/glossary.adoc@89
PS1, Line 89:   Equipment Identity Register
> "Core network element that stores and manages IMEI numbers"? (does it do something else?)
That sounds accurate.

https://gerrit.osmocom.org/#/c/12567/1/common/chapters/glossary.adoc@244
PS1, Line 244:   Proxy Visitor Location Register
> first time I hear of that, what does it do?
I found it in osmo-msc.git/src/libvlr/vlr_lu_fsm.c; it is not spelled out or described there, and git blame points to the big "Add libvlr implementation" commit with no further description of what PVLR is.

With online research I figured, that it probably means Proxy Visitor Location Register. But researching further, it seems to be "Previous VLR" as noted in Figure 4.1.2.7 (sheet 1 of 1): Process Send_Identification_PVLR of TS 23.012.

I'll remove this from the patch.
