   Rich content model
      A Django model that defines one or more placeholders that allow
      term:`content plugin`s to be used, for example "Page", "Press release"
      or "Event".

   Content item
      A Django model that represents a 'block' of content that can be added to
      any rich content model, for example "Text", "Image", "Embedded Media".

      Content items are related to rich content models by a generic foreign
      key, using the ``fluent-contents`` approach.

   Content plugin
      A class that registers a content item in GLAMkit which specifies how
      it is to be rendered in a given context and how it is edited in the admin.

   GLAM
      Short for Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums, used by some members
      of those institutions to refer to public cultural/collecting institutions
      as a whole.

   ICEkit
      ICEkit_ is the engine that runs GLAMkit (actually GLAMkit is just an
      extended set of settings and requirements on top of ICEkit). ICEkit is a
      basic CMS toolkit, designed for teams of content professionals. ICE
      isn't officially short for anything, but if it was, it would be
      "Interaction Consortium Editorial".
