OSDev.org

In the description of the "OSDev Wiki" forum: "orginization" --> "organization"

--> organisation

is the wiki english or american because both syntaxes are correct

Do one, and just redirect the other spelling.. Either that, or fork the Wiki into international English and American English, using a script that detects changes in the wiki, copies it across to the other, and then detects spelling differences.

thanks

Um, the 'OS Development' description is wrong too, 'fuction' instead of 'function'...

I believe there is also a mistake in the project area..."accouncements"?

I spelled it right in the title just not the description. This is one of the reasons not to do forum administration *after* you've already stayed up all night coding. I guess I need to upgrade to Firefox 2, I think it comes with a spell checker for forum text areas.

That is a run-on sentence.

Indeed it does. A mighty awesome feature it is. To my dismay, however, I find myself muddled as to why I am writing in this fashion...

it certainly does!, yes i am very thankful for spell check in the browser, but thats not the only good thing about FF2 -- there is now scrolling on the tabs bar -- very useful for those of us who commonly have 20+ tabs open at once

another very useful feature is 'undo close tab' which will reopen the last non-blank tab that was closed

you should definitely upgrade (after all, FF2 has been here for a while now)

the downside is the close-tab button has been removed and replaced with a close button on each tab (but thankfully you can remove the close button from the tabs, i did this when i discovered how easy it was to close tabs instead of switching to them -- the close button is still on the current tab, and you can still middle-click to close non-current tabs)

whoot whoot product promotion detected whoot whoot

I prefer to call it more of a 'review'. Besides, it's free software. Can't we promote that?

It's quotes like this that give Free/Open Software a better name than it often deserves. Free Software creators still attempt to promote it for the money gained from other areas, so any kind of advertising is advertising whether the product requires payment before use or not. There are other reasons and this is not compeltely correct but i am too tired to remember my point, so hopefully someone unbiased and intelligent will expand for me.
