Is there a PEAR standard for use of UK or US English in comments in PEAR modules? I can't see anything in the coding standards about it.
A really long time ago there was an informal voting if UK or US English should be used in the PEAR manual. The outcome of the voting was to use US English there. I think it makes sense to do the same in the code. (To be honest, I don't think this is a big issue, and I strongly believe that you won't run into problems if you use whatever dialect you like best, as long as a majority of people can understand it.) - Martin And minorities are minorities, anyway.
