+==================== Changes in man-pages-2.59 ====================
+
+Released: 2007-06-25
+
+Global changes
+--------------
+
+Manual pages are now standardized on American spelling. See
+http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_and_British_English_spelling_differences
+for more information on the differences. Formerly, different pages (and
+sometimes even a single page!) employed American and British spelling
+conventions; best to stnadarize on one spelling, and American English
+is the standard in Computer Science.
