I'm the "original contributor". I really don't care if you change this or other files written by me. My english isn't perfect, so I like that others review my work and correct it. I've wrotten "licence" because I've learned english in the british council, so I use British english, but feel free to change to American.

It will always be wrong for some subset of readers, since in British the noun is licence but in American it's license (and contrariwise for the verb -- can't speak for other flavours of English!). Unless there were a consensus to use one chosen form of English consistently (which there isn't, not least because many of the contributors are non-native speakers and write their own individual variant of the language!), I'd just leave such dichotomous spellings as made by the original contributor. > > Cheers! > > Mike
