I forgot did someone say Tesselate is an alternative spelling for Tessellate in some country? I can't find it when I do a web search except in our PostGIS docs (come up on google). Anyrate too late to be changing names so close to release.

All right as long as someone spells it that way. I'm okay with just one name - I hate having two names for the same thing. I'm just going to close this out as invalid. If the French want to spell things the US way, who am I to be the judge.
pushing this to 2.2. Even if we did decide to change the name, we can't have name changes in a micro.
