Documentation Errors I've Found

I've just downloaded, and compiled LyX 2.04 for Ubuntu 12.04. I've found a couple of errors as I've been reading the documentation.

In the user guide that came with the package in section 3.9.5 Lyx's Proper Names, the sentence It's an old tradition in the TeX world to give programs geek version numbers - I think geek should be Greek.
In section 6.14 Spell Checking, 2nd paragraph, 4th sentence begins This work - work should be works.

No, geek is correct here, see

Thanks, I fixed this now for the next release.
