Hi Juergen: thank you for pointing out the remaining typos.

I fixed these in my local tree, with the exception of the two instances above.

The two issues above come down to US vs non-US English

https://grammarist.com/spelling/fulfil-fulfill/
https://grammarist.com/spelling/installment-instalment/

I didn't really review the document for consistency with respect to a particular style of English spelling.
It does seem though that normally I use US spelling (e.g. minimize) mostly and of course the Contributor
Covenant has been written US spelling.

I don't have a strong view either way and can have a go at making it consistent (e.g. in US stylespelling)
