That's an interesting and informative comment, but in the strict sense of how "program" is spelt in the UK in the intended meaning here, ultimately just background information. The American origin (which I'm well aware of) has long been the standard spelling in the software industry in the UK. The spelling in the document - insofar as computer programs are intended by "programme" - is awkward at best and wrong at worst - even in the UK - and that isn't going to do them any favours in flagship documentation. It's probably just an unfortunate oversight after a spelling checker automatically corrected the text to local spelling without context, or a (fair) assumption was made by the author if they are new to software terminology in this case. Or maybe they are really clever and are intentionally misspelling it on the assumption their target audience are high flying execs, journalists and money raisers who are also unaware...
