Anybody doing a British English translation?
I'd like to see all these "..izations" and "..izes" replaced with "..isations" and "..ises" etc..
While we are at it, can we get this forum changed too.. LOCALIZATION in deed...

Well technically "Localization" is American - the English is "Localisation". You (you meaning americans!) turned all our S's into Z's - not sure why - any idea?
Anyway, I don't think we're being particularly serious, it's the fact that it's the "English" translation and it's actually in "English (USA)", not "English (UK)" - being where ENGLAND is!!

1 just to be a snot faced kid?
2 just to be different?
3 because if it sounds like the letter z then write the letter z and not S which makes it sound like you sneezed when saying localisation.
take your pick of which you like ?
of course with all that fog you have in london england you might have been sneezing when you first started saying the word.?
lol lol lol

I think it's probably a combination of 1 and 2!
