I've seen plenty of badly spelled English in comments in
PEAR (much of it
from people who don't speak English natively) - so I really
can't see that
it matters much whether you write "color" or
"colour", or "center" or
"centre", or "grey" or
"gray".
Consistency would be nice.
(And also, in these cases, HTML prefers "color"
and "center" - but doesn't
care whether you use "grey" or
"gray").
