Sivakumar,
I have always done the Appendices and then the Glossary. I have no good reason
other than I like the layout. I--as the user--would look for the appendix and
then a glossary of terms. Hopefully someone else will have a better rationale
for why it should be done one way or the other, but I just thought I would try
to help.
Let me know what you decide. I might change my game plan completely.
Bonita
