Actually you'll find that there are several occurrences of front-end
in changes.html, and no occurrence of 'front end'.

And I agree with all of them: 'front end' should indeed have a space as
a noun, while 'Ada front-end' should have an hypen, since its an adjective.

And checking the url you listed, I can see that the url agrees with me.

Anyway, I am not a native speaker, so if you feel these are all errors,
feel free to change all of them, I won't take this responsibility.

Sure, why not.
