Hi,

What do you guys think about pruning the SVN keywords in the source files?

Matthias pointed out a nice example of an issue you run into with this
stuff.

1 Not everybody has (the same) svn:keywords on every file.
2 When 1, it will get out of sync.
3 Unreadable version numbers are pretty useless information (at least for
me).
4 If you need to know something about the revision history, SVN itself is a
much better place to look.
5 (I think) it looks messy in the source code.

Note that I'm not talking about removing everything in a major refactoring.
For now, I'm just proposing a convention for new code.
I'm also not proposing to remove the @author JavaDoc tag. That's a useful
one. I'm talking about the  "latest modification by $Author"  and  "@version
$Revision: 799929 $ $Date:.......$"  stuff.

What do you guys think?

Regards,
Jan-Kees
