Subject:    Typos in the en_GB files

Hello, I am developing a script to find common typos in message catalogs, 
and I have checked the en_GB message directory with it.

The typos the script can find are quite simple currently, but rules can be 
added easily. 

You can find a diff with the changes that I think would make sense. 

Checking en_GB actually checks the original messages, so these changes - if 
they make sense - should also be applied to the application sources.

Should I contact the individual developers to report the problems?

I have SVN access, so I could fix messages myself, if is needed.

Ciao,
Luciano
