glosses: A subset of the Cartesian product of all the members of an inverse system, such that a member M of the subset is a sort of “cross section” of the inverse system (as fiber bundle) induced by the morphisms of it. (If i<j in the indexing poset then f_ij:A_j→A_i in the inverse system and if a_i∈A_i, a_j∈A_j are components of M then f_ij(a_j)=a_i).
