I have to say I'm not a big fan of what I've seen of mono.addins so far. Maybe ExtensionLoader is better, so I do think we should look at that. As I think it is better to only have one system of loading plugins/modules. <br>
<br>As for initialise vs Initialize, hehe. Well personally I think it should stay as it is. I really see no reason to change it. I do know of other opensource projects that use initialise, Ogre being one. And it would be as hard for me to remember to look/search for Initialize as it would be for you to look for initialise.<br>
<br>So my vote is a strong keep to UK english or even the mix we have (because some bits are in US english). But I really don't think people should have to switch code that is there to US english. Sorry thats a point I do feel quite strongly on.<br>
<br>But saying that if everyone else voted in favour of that switch I wouldn't stand in the way. Just would think it was wrong. Any code I write is just likely to have uk spelling. The
same way any code you write is likely to have US spelling. And opensim has had the UK spelling from the start.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br><br><b><i>Ryan McDougall <<a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:sempuki1@gmail.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:sempuki1@gmail.com">sempuki1@gmail.com</a>></i></b> wrote:</div>
