  1. DOCS: typo on CLUSTER page

    Peter Smith <smithpb2250@gmail.com> — 2026-03-18T01:43:06Z

    Hi.

Is this a tiny typo on the CLUSTER docs page?

PSA patch.

It is.  Except if Alvaro thinks otherwise, I am putting that into my
bag of HEAD-only typos.

Wow, good, catch, I didn't know this:

	https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/general_writing/grammar/using_articles.html
	
	a + singular noun beginning with a consonant sound: a user (sounds
	like 'yoo-zer,' i.e. begins with a consonant 'y' sound, so 'a'
	is used); a university; a unicycle

  Do not let urgent matters crowd out time for investment in the future.

(English teachers in France are very noisy about all these grammar
rules in middle school.)

FYI, we have also this pearl in the tree, as of HEAD:
src/test/modules/test_extensions/t/001_extension_control_path.pl:
# Create an user to test permissions to read extension locations.

FWIW, here [1] is a similar typo in a code comment where "a upper
bound" should say "an upper bound"
