There's no official style guidelines as far as I know (but could be wrong). What I try to do is follow the style I find in the file being edited. I started with TAB indenting for instance, but as others prefer spaces we're somewhere slowly moving there, for new code. You'll find a mix of TAB and spaces but hopefully only in different files. Changing the style of files has a bad effect on history tracking and regression debugging. About copyright, old notices shouldnt' be removed unless you're sure nothing is left from the original author. --strk; () Free GIS & Flash consultant/developer /\ http://strk.keybit.net/services.html _______________________________________________ geos-devel mailing list geos-devel@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/geos-devel
