Hello my fellow monguers,<br><br>I've been designing the API for some code I'm contributing to an open source project (WebGUI), and I've been mulling over the use of English alternative spelling in my code/documentation/file names/etc..<br>
<br>The majority of developers on this project are based in America, and while I'm no zealot when it comes to preserving the Queen's English I do find it takes a certain amount of effort to not start convulsing whenever I encounter the word "instanciate" in the source.<br>
<br>So, I'm wondering what to do in my code. My heart just isn't in the 'z' and I miss the absent 'u's, but then again I've long since gotten used to writing "color" tags in html, so should I just bite the bullet and name my "authorization" methods accordingly? What do you do when you are involved in international projects? Should I just shut my eyes to it and think of the developers from non English-speaking backgrounds? Or just shut my eyes and think about Engla.. oh wait that's not right.<br>
