> I think if we had named the SDK object as "Colour" instead of "Color" we would have confused everyone except for British-Empire-sorts-of-places. In fact I'm pretty sure such a spelling would have been logged as a bug by irrate south of the border users. And we wouldn't want to have different editions of the SDK, imagine if a script that works on the "Canadian" edition failed on the "American" edition. :)
