msgid "Layout shift behaviour"

American English spelling is "behavior". GNOME applications are supposed to use
American English spellings by default in their UI (other gnome-applets messages
also use the "behavior" spelling).

Please note that GNOME is in string freeze right now.
Comment 1 Danielle Madeley 2005-02-13 03:39:32 UTC 
Is this in the UI? Is it worth fixing for G10?
Comment 2 Christian Rose 2005-02-13 14:22:36 UTC 
I don't know if it's visible in the UI.
Probably not worth fixing for G10, in my opinion.

Comment 4 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-03-21 20:57:37 UTC 
thanks. committed
Comment 5 Danielle Madeley 2005-03-22 01:13:50 UTC 
HEAD is still in string freeze... you haven't just set Christian on us, have you?
Comment 6 Danilo Segan 2005-03-22 02:11:20 UTC 
Oh yes he did, yes he did (well, not yet, and if you're fast...)! :)
Comment 7 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-03-22 09:37:07 UTC 
Oops. OK, he will kill me, not you lads. And I felt so boring in 2.10 release
cycle - not breaking any freeze so far:)
Comment 8 Danielle Madeley 2005-03-22 12:49:11 UTC 
So this has been reverted? I see a Changelog entry for it, but not the fix itself.
Comment 9 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-03-22 15:02:18 UTC 
Ghm. I thought I committed them both yesterday - ChangeLog and base.xml.in... I
will check again tonight...
Comment 10 Danielle Madeley 2005-03-22 16:24:59 UTC 
Just to clarify. We don't want to check them in yet. We should not break string
freeze.
Comment 11 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-03-22 16:28:15 UTC 
yeah, I got it. If it is not committed - I won't do it. When do you plan to fork
2.12?
Comment 12 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-03-28 23:27:50 UTC 
Well, I just checked - "cvs diff" gives not difference (the spelling is
"behaviour" now). But noone noticed:)
Comment 13 Danilo Segan 2005-03-29 10:34:08 UTC 
And it should be "behavior" in American English.  So, reopening.
Comment 14 Danielle Madeley 2005-07-01 11:54:09 UTC 
Sergey, did you end up committing this fix?
Comment 15 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2005-07-01 22:22:34 UTC 
It's all 'behavior' in CVS. At least, I think so (cannot check exactly since CVS
does not work for me).
Comment 16 Kjartan Maraas 2005-07-03 17:12:22 UTC 
I checked now and it seems there are some fuzzy messages or obsolete ones in .po
files but that's it. Closing.
