Re: [Python-Dev] FileSystemError or FilesystemError?
+1 for FileSystemError. I see myself misspelling it as FileSystemError if we go with alternate spelling. I'll probably won't be the only one.

I don't think it really matters since both file system and filesystem appear to be in common usage. I would say +1 to FileSystemError -- i.e. take file system as two words.

This pretty much summarizes my thoughts. I saw the wiki article using both and since I consider 'filesystem' a single word I was wondering if anyone else preferred FilesystemError.
