IIRC we agreed to disagree in general on points of spelling and punctuation which differ from one country to another, even though we've agreed to stick to two spaces in the documentation project. I think it's inappropriate to single people out because they choose to use a different but valid punctuation convention from the one you do. In case you missed it, in England and Australia the convention is one space after a full stop.
