We've been through this before, but I should mention it again:

About 2 years ago I corrected much of the English for Open ERP (I changed only the label strings, not the names). Since then, new strings have been put in with the same old incorrect spellings (there are some favourites, which must be rooted in one language or another - /developper/ is one, /ressource/ is another). So a one-off change does not work for long.

Somebody proposed a new process so that incorrect spelling does not get committed to the published code, but I don't think that process has been implemented.

Maybe they should implement it on the integration server (http://test.openobject.com/). Making a Ruby or Python script that checks for common mistakes ("childs", "developper") does not look to hard. The server could then send those "spelling warnings" to the commiters, just as it does now when a commit does not pass the unit/integration tests.
