Thread: [PATCH] Replace "implementor" with "implementer"

Hi hackers,

I noticed that there are several places where we use the spelling
"implementOr" while the correct one seems to be "implementEr". Here is
the patch.

After a little more study I found evidence that both spellings can be
acceptable [1]. As a non-native speaker I can't judge whether this is
true or not and which spelling is preferable. I believe we should
unify the spelling though. The reason why I initially thought
"implementOr" is an incorrect spelling is because most spell-checking
tools I personally use indicated so.

They're both valid according to the dictionaries I looked
at, eg [1].  I don't feel a need to change anything.

OK, thanks. And sorry for the noise.
