[Fwd: Re: 2.30 Release Notes] (en_gb)



Hi,

After I sent out the release notes announcement Philip Withnall sent me
the following patch for en_gb.  I'm not sure how the translation process
works (sorry!) - can someone apply this patch and commit?

Thanks.

Paul

Nice work on the release notes. When translating to en_GB, I spotted a
few small mistakes. Patch attached.
