Hi,

As announced at WWX, "haXe" is now spelled "Haxe".

I tried doing some automatic replaces on the haxe.org and other places,
please report any place it might be left ;)

Best,
Nicolas

Now Germans must be proud about existing programming language named
after pork :)

I see most of the wikipedia entry has been updated.

Anyone know how to rename the title?  Currently it comes up as "HaXe" or "haXe".  Not sure how to do a rename in wikimedia...

While we're at it, I moved the "pronounced 'hex'" line from the first sentence to further down the page.  A lot of people first time they hear of haxe will want to read about it, and may well read the wikipedia article first.  Let's make sure their first impression is about the power of haxe, not about the community bickering over pronunciation :P

One of the thing we were thinking is to become agnostic for
pronunciation as well :

"Haxe can compile to many platforms, can be used from many IDE, and can
even be pronounced in many different ways" :)

You can redirect the page. I updated HaXe to redirect to Haxe. Althought now the title is just haxe...
