Hi Eric:

I'm a member of the PHP Documentation Team.  Someone on the team is
interested in improving our style guide and suggested we read yours.  I'm
very impressed.  Good stuff.

I noticed something that seems to need clarification.  The "A v. an"
discussion on the Common Mistakes page brings up a the potential
confusion around "an URL" vs "a URL" but doesn't state which form should
be used in the Fedora docs.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_Style_Guide_-_Common_Mistakes

Personally, I'm favorable to "a URL," but who am I to say what your team
should do. :)

Anyway, thanks again for the excellent read,

- --Dan
