You could use a diamond hole bit for larger holes and carbide glass bits for smaller and then take it nice and easy.  Also keep it wet so you don't have glass dust form.  I see people form a little pool with a clay wall or something else around where you want to cut.

Also make sure you aren't trying to drill tempered glass. it will just shatter.

That topic is very useless. I'm confused how you find a Google drive link and a few pointless comments relevant to what I was asking.
