Trivial grammar fix. "correspond with" can mean either being in agreement
with, happening at the same time, or communication between parties.
"correspond to" is used to mean equivalance, which is the intended use
throughout the documentation.

Thanks for this. I'm not a native English speaker, so if you see any
other language issues, please let me know, or feel free to fix them.

In general usage you most often see "correspond with" in the
communication sense. Using it in the other senses is rare.
Ironically I wasn't totally sure on the usage without looking it up, but
it felt wrong as it was.  There are one or two cases in the documentation
where the "in agreement with" interpretation might work, but even there
the "correspond to" felt more appropriate to me.

Cheers,
Kent.
