There is obviously no "need" to force the use of one spelling variant or another. However, I think it is good style to consistently use either American or British English. To pick the first example from Google, the FreeBSD documentation group do this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/writing-style.html And they face many of the same challenges we do as far as contributors from different regions of the world. -Neil ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
