Some old and new inconsistencies in the English Dictionary

I've been doing some clean-up work and some double-checking using the latest version (2.0.1.6 - 2009.10.05) of the English dictionary and have a few questions:

(1) What is the difference between "PhGrandParentsAdopted" and "PhGrandParentsAdopted1" (introduced in 2.0.1.7RC5)

(2) The entry for "PhOTTxt_Migration" reads "... {!0} emigrated[ from {7}] ..." should that not be "emigrated to" (vs "immigrated from") (introduced in 2.0.1.7RC9c)

(3) I see a lot of RC-unknown version indications like in V="2.0.1.7RC?±".  Was this left in the code on purpose or is it an oversight?

(4) Shouldn't the second text entry read "family_FM" in stead of "family_MF"?

<TimelineFamily_MF T="family_MF"             C1="#2E8B57" C2="seagreen" V="2.0.1.7RC9a±" />
<TimelineFamily_FM T="family_MF"             C1="#2E8B57" C2="seagreen" V="2.0.1.7RC9a±" />
<TimelineFamily_MM T="family_MM"            C1="#2E8B57" C2="seagreen" V="2.0.1.7RC9a±" />
<TimelineFamily_FF T="family_FF"               C1="#2E8B57" C2="seagreen" V="2.0.1.7RC9a±" />

Nand (10/8/2009)(1) What is the difference between "PhGrandParentsAdopted" and "PhGrandParentsAdopted1" (introduced in 2.0.1.7RC5)

This stems from this post. I will add this comment to the Dictionary:
<!-- Two versions of the PhGrandParents[|Adopted] phrases are provided. The 1st uses present tense if the grandparent(s) is/are alive,
             the 2nd only uses present tense if both individual and grandparent(s) are still alive
             the 1st is the default. You will need to edit this Dictionary if you require the 2nd version -->
  


(2) The entry for "PhOTTxt_Migration" reads "... {!0} emigrated[ from {7}] ..." should that not be "emigrated to" (vs "immigrated from") (introduced in 2.0.1.7RC9c)
Depends on your stand point - are you seeing them off or welcoming them in? To me 'emigration' is about the place of departure and 'immigration' that of arrival. But I accept both forms are used.
We really need four variations PhOT[|Txt]_EmigrationTo/From and PhOT[|Txt]_ImmigrationTo/From


(3) I see a lot of RC-unknown version indications like in V="2.0.1.7RC?±".  Was this left in the code on purpose or is it an oversight?

On purpose. I know I added them after 2.0.1.6 but can't remember which 'release candidate' Smile


(4) Shouldn't the second text entry read "family_FM" in stead of "family_MF"?

Yes Actually no, the image is the same (family__MF.gif) whether the order is MF or FM.

I'll post a revised skin with these changes within a day or so. Thanks for the input.
