Personally, I think that K&R formatting is pretty crappy. I feel that strongly about it. Does everyone else like K&R? (The coding format, I'm sure that the guys a standup people.)
<rant> I think the K&R formatting style is an abomination that should be stricken from the face of the planet. I find K&R formatted code to be nearly unreadable, certainly much less readable than code formattted Allman style.
Why in the @#!^ Sun picked that for the Java Coding Conventions is beyond me... but I consider it a huge mistake, as oodles of people now believe that K&R style is "java style."
I've even had people look at my Java code and go "Why do you do the curly braces C++ style?" like the formatting is tied to the language or something. UUggghh...
