[Nathan Beyer] I would argue that the code that exists in the repository is a sufficient example and guideline. If it's not, then patches should be submitted with rationales that validate the change. > contributor or committer feels that a refactoring would be helpful, then > let > > the process work. > > > No one would like his code changed by others ...

It won't waste time. :) [Nathan Beyer] Maybe I'm pessimistic, but when I write code for open source projects I assume that my code will be changed. It isn't my code; it's the project's code because I donated it and the project can do as it pleases with it. If my code is committed without change, then great; if it is changed, then that's just as great because my code was accepted and I get to learn something. In any case, is it realistic to think that one particular style or convention is going to be acceptable by everyone? At some point the acceptability of a piece of code will come down to one person's judgment and their view of what's acceptable at that moment in time. > > -Nathan > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Geir Magnusson Jr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > > > > test<SomethingUsefulWithMaybeANumberIfItsOverloadedWhereYouUseYourGoodJudg > > > ement> > > > > > > or > > > > > > > > > test<SomethingThatYouWouldLikeToEncounterIfYouWereReadingCodeForFirstTime> > > > > > > but not > > > > > > test<SomethingDogmaticJustForSakeOfDogma> > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Terms of use : http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/mailing.html > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > > -- > > Best Regards! > > Jimmy, Jing Lv > China Software Development Lab, IBM --------------------------------------------------------------------- Terms of use : http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/mailing.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
