Crotchet or Quaver Grace Note?
In 1.1, there is a grace note called 'crotchet grace note', but in the 2.0 nightly build (4810), the same image is called 'Grace: quarter'.
What is correct?

Crotchet is the UK term
Quarter note is the US term
Maybe there should be two English language versions?
UK and US?

Don't forget Canada.
Language creep.

Ya, don't forget about us!
I can never remember the non-North American method of note/rest naming. I remember the movie "Close Encounters" when the ship comes down and the scientists are playing the keyboard to communicate with the aliens. All those quavers, semi-quavers... we are not taught that terminology over here.

divided by a common language ;-)
Ah, it was my fault - notice the 'typo' in the subject (quaver as opposed to quarter).
Sorry - carry on :).

I misread them, rather.
I had wondered "that looks like a crotchet, but it says quaver. Maybe it's designed like that so it doesn't look like an appoggiatura.", when it actually said quarter - equating to a crotchet.
