Righto... my first checkin for these language related thingies. Hopefully nothing
has blown up! ;)
The basic style guide is:
1) British English, Cambridge style... ie: -ise, not -ize, etc.
2) Sentence-case pervasively with exception of acronyms/abbreviations, which if not in their contracted form, shall be in title-case. If you don't like it, you can
restyle it via CSS using text-transform: none|uppercase|lowercase|capitalize; ...
additional hooks may be added to the strings to assist this.
3) For those that have missed the switch to UTF-8, it means that the language files need not use numeric entities anymore. <, > and & stay though, as
they must always be entitised.
There'll be more tweaks and changes, though this "big 'un" is out of the way and will get progressively chilly so that it can be frozen for RC1 after
however many betas there may be. ;) Wooh! :P
