This sounds like a good task for some of the less technically adept
members of the list. Putting all the instances in an Etherpad document
would allow the developers to go through and fix them rapidly.

hi
i noticed several places of bad spelling, like "is" written as
"are":
http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdelibs/tree/CMakeLists.txt
| tde_message_fatal( "ltdl.h are required, but not found on
your system" | )
should be written as
| tde_message_fatal( "ltdl.h is required, but not found on
your system" )
and so on for all items which are singular not plural...
and "informations"! info is uncountable, therefore it's always
"info" and "information"
http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging "Branch
Informations " should be written as "Branch Information"
explanation:
http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=215770
Thank you for the warning! I am aware that I have used 'are × is'
several times (copy & paste the code from Serghei) and although I
wondered about it, I let it be so.
The question is, who will fix it?
