*> The approach of choosing the spelling with the least number of letters, *> word-by-word, might well approximate the convention of using US English *> throughout. However, that goal (if chosen) might be better achieved by *> installing a US English dictionary and spell-checking the text. *> For RFC publication, RFC Editor does use a spell checker, which no doubt has a US bias. We do try for consistency. but we also try to allow consistent non-US usage. In either case, we are less than perfect, but we try. RFC Editor/bb *> The "spelling error" comments above are attributed to "The IESG". As *> someone who learnt to read and write outside the US, I would hope that *> there's no conscious ambition to enforce the us US English spelling in *> new documents. *> *> *> Joe *> *> _______________________________________________ *> Ietf mailing list *> Ietf@xxxxxxxx *> https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf *> _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
