Wordsize may vary, but bytes are 8 bits.

So say you. Reality differs.
this may be a translation problem...
I see on wikipedia that the word "octet" can be used when 8 bits must
be enforced, however "octet" in the french translation for "byte", so
in french there is no difference between "byte" and "octet" (in fact I
discover than "octet" can be used in english).
what about other langages? may be the problem is only in english?
