In general, I agree with Justin B Rye's points, but for this I ask: Why??? Generally, compound nouns tend to become single words and "Filesystem Hierarchy Standard" shows the one-word version is in common usage. Searching l10n-english archives suggests that we've inherited the split-word version from the debian-installer team. :-( http://lists.debian.org/debian-l10n-english/2007/06/msg00150.html It doesn't look like it was considered there with much reasoning:- http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2005/02/msg00420.html Can we ask D-I to modernise their usage, please? > [...] Also, "automatically discovers", not vice versa. Leading adverbs make phrases harder to understand because it is not yet clear what action is being done when one reads "automatically". Ignoring the above filesystem thing, I suggest this rephrasing:- Description: file system client for mounting network media servers This package provides a client for Universal Plug'n'Play (UPnP) Audio-Visual MediaServers. It discovers all compatible UPnP AV devices on the network automatically and mounts their media content as a file system using FUSE.
