I disagree fully. If you are a random contributor to projects, it's easy to figure out the correct style code just by looking around and copying it. Likely there is more than tabs-and-spaces-and-braces problem to the style, things like naming schemas and others you have to match... in any case you'll either be corrected by upstream, or they will be permissive and accept it as is. HOWEVER, for long time contributions to code (most of us), you MUST have a proper setup for your project. You must setup some way to say "for this you use that". In our case we often checkout the whole SVN, so I assign ~/Development/svn/e to our code style. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
