This was quite demanding: the terminology is very different according to different authors and I tried to be as complete as possible. In fact, since I know quite well the books using terminologies (B) and (C) I could provide precise references, whereas I lack knowledge of the (A)-terminology (the one used in the original article): any suggestion for precise references?

Also, I decided to completely leave out the following comment at the bottom of the original article:

Often, by the Borel measure on the real line one understands the measure defined on the Borel sets such that its value on an arbitrary segment is equal to the length of that segment.

This statement looks really weird to me: I think nowadays everybody calls it Lebesgue measure, even if one restricts it to the Borel sets... or am I missing something? Camillo 11:06, 15 August 2012 (CEST)
