Re: [Inkscape-devel] "Vacuum Defs"

Initially I thought Vacuum was a mispelling, I have only ever seen the word vacumn before, Vacuum seems to be an American word.

Wow. At first I didn't believe that but then I googled for it and found 13000 "vacumns" out there, against 8 million vacuums. So it seems like this is indeed a fairly common misspelling, though its origins are unclear. I highly doubt that this has anything to do with British/American difference. The correct Latin word is of course vacuum.
