Which English?

Hello All,

As I'm working on some of the English text right now, I thought I'd ask which flavor of English to use. Should we standardize on American or British or doesn't it matter? I prefer American, but I'd like to get some input.

Thank you.

It's all American right now (modulo screwups), so consistency would favor keeping it so.

Which English?

No matter for non native english translators. As a non native english writer, I prefer the american flavor: shorter and often closer to the latin origin.
