hello,
For our english speaking clients, which are 99% british, we want to
use british english spelling in our manuals.
Now we have a discussion about "licence" vs. "license"
We (non-native english speakers) tried several dictionaries, and can't
really make a distinction. Some say that 'licence' is the correct
british spelling, others say both are correct.
Can anybody tell us which is correct (or both?)
cheers, Freek
