[Bug 673087] Re: Spelling errors in the code

 

Hello,
Thank you for your suggestion! However this is unfortunately out of the scope of the current OpenERP release, so we cannot implement it for rc2. But it has great chances to be done for future versions, and i'd like also to emphasize on the fact that we're currently doing it step by step each time we're reviewing old part of code.
Let's close this bug for now, for the sake of clarity in Launchpad, it can always be reopened later when we consider new features for future roadmaps.
Thank you for your understanding!

Status in OpenObject Addons Modules: Won't Fix

Bug description:
There are lots of small spelling mistakes throughout the code : datas=data, childs=children, logistic=logistics etc.
I think these deserve to be fixed one day.

The point of correct English in the code is:
- well-written code is a documentation in itself
- you can't search for misspelled words in IDEs
- bad English is a clue to find code that was never reviewed nor refactored
- respect for your fellow developers worldwide

It's not risky because:
- renaming variables and functions is easily and quickly done (ecplise even has a wizard for it)
- bzr lets you review what you merge
- yml tests will catch the problems
