Just after quick scan I've got some suggestion. It would be good to add
additional dimension to this dictionary: user (regular computer
user/office user, manager, software programmer, network/admin
specialist, phone user or digital photography user). The same word in IT
can have multiple meanings depends who is using it.
Interface is a good example (for application/software user it will be
just GUI graphic user interface or how the application looks like,
network engineer talking about interface would mean particular socket
types available on device to connect it to network, similar will be for
hardware specialist: all kind of sockets on circuit boards, for
programmer it will be a peace of code  API (application programming
interface) allowing to communicate with some library/hiding some
implementation details).
Other good example is hacker, hacking - it's has a very positive meaning
in software industry meaning top of the top specialist knowing some
system to the bottom, hacking means solving very difficult problems
using such a deep knowledge. So no surprise if some bank is looking for
good hacker. On the other way the polish translation "haker" is matching
more to cracker. Sometime hacker is being used in newspapers with the
cracker meaning as well, so not for software/hardware engineers but
targeting rather regular computer users (as audience).

There is still a room for more IT words.

Some example proposal from me of word that software engineers might
meet: spike, spike code, doing spike - a peace of very initial code (or
coding of such initial code), the one which is kind of draft, proof of
concept and is not going to be a "production" code.

Best regards,

        During the weekend classes (Management faculty) you mentioned some
        students project on IT dictionary. I'm quite interested what's
        about.
        This is aligned with my day to day job (I've got 15 years software
        engineering experience).
