Package: debian-kernel-handbook Version: 1.0.17 Severity: minor After handling #818577 I decided to spell-check the entire document. I didn't find any other definite errors, though "prepended" is not widely accepted and should probably be "prefixed". I did notice that for those words that have different spellings in American and British English, we sometimes have American spellings and sometimes British. (This is possibly due to my writing most of the new text and using British spelling by default.) We should really settle on which conventions to use, and document that.
