you say couple, but i take it you mean regarding this one entry? > The entry for 01/02 in src/usr.bin/calendar/calendars/calendar.ushistory > has "brittish american". I would suggest "British-American" instead. > i agree we should capitalise both British and American. i agree also that british is more likely with one "t" than two. less persuaded about that hyphen though: - in general i dislike the indiscriminate use of hyphens - in cases where it's bikeshed, i tend to vote that change is churn (and will be reverted by subsequent interlopers). if you can prove we have a majority of cases hyphenating in this way, i'd be willing to look at it though. - oxford syle, to which i am sympathetic, sayeth "do not hyphenate capitalized words" (e.g. New Orleans jazz). horror of the "z" in capitalised notwithstanding, i think that's about right so i'll aim for "British American convoy". but not today, since it's new year's day. happy new year, everyone! jmc
