... Germans would love "Apache" Group without spaces ...
And so would the French, the Spanish, the Belgians, and many others.

MS localization translates "Program Files" into "Programme"

Interesting.

Similarly interesting maybe then :
On a Spanish Windows, it is "Archivos de Programas" (2 spaces)
On a French Windows, it is "Fichiers de Programmes" (also 2 spaces)
It's absolutely great when one needs to support users in different countries..

I believe the point some people (me) are trying to make is that it is not because MS does stupid things, that all software developers have to follow suit. And specially not open source software developers. "Apache Group" is stupid as part of a path, there is simply no other word for it.

Persist and sign,
