yes, it doesn't matter to the computer how we spell stuff, and it won't typically be exposed to the end user, but still it does matter, because mappers and data consumers will have it easier if we adhere to a well defined spelling (e.g. like we do: British English ortography). The few edge cases that remain are those where BE offers equally valid spelling variants. Cheers, Martin
