I am not asking anyone to do a massive cleanup. It was just meant to help clarify and educate going forward. I expect there may be only some cleanup around areas of activity. There is no disadvantage except things like readability and perhaps confusing some new developers as they review existing code ("Why is it like this here and like that there?"). >> >> I realize there may be quite a bit of cruft, but I just want to give >> some feedback on what I saw in case it helps. >> > > Thanks for your hints. > till > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iEYEARECAAYFAkyfws0ACgkQzwEyz7QP6nTLhwCfWIoZVOzHvKmTsAGddzkntZVC > XYcAnRQxJyflXpA+w48bOiIA3aYVaKOH > =1WrA > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- >
