This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

I got some SVN auth issues for some reason, so I'll assign you the docblock since I so rudely
took the wen bug from you Chris >.<

@cmb seems like I was too quick on fixing the web before I saw your PR (sorry!) so I guess it can be
closed.
@requinix I don't see why we cannot fix simple typos like this, even simple typos can often
lead to products or project looking less professional, or in some edge cases, less trustworthy.
I'm not a native english speaker either, however I do like that we have consistency and try to
be our best, heck I'm not even that great at my own native grammar (danish), but I do try to
improve myself to actually speak "correctly" and make it less a burden for others to read.
Together maybe we can prevent another "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US" ;-)
