Most GNU programs tend to standardize (or is it standardise) on American English instead of British English. Nothing against the British (my wife is from the UK), but consistency with other GNU programs such as coreutils and gcc might argue that UK contributors put up with us brash Americans on our choice of spellings. :) But I didn't see anything in the GNU Coding Standards that made this sentiment a requirement. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
