This is the old English grammatical chestnut known as the "split infinitive" (or rather, in the case of my draft, the infinitive is intentionally *not* split). Both forms are used, and mean the same. The one I chose is sometimes considered the more 'classically' correct, and some stick-in-the-muds consider your form to be incorrect. Wikipedia has quite a good article on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_infinitive I instinctively like the non-split form here because, to me, it emphasizes more clearly that "appropriately" applies to all three actions. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/QZ6L2K6BNSMDYNQBULMMFPB5W6PTN5P3/
