I'd like to remind folks that Nikki and Warp are your BDFLs for all things style. That said, I applaud their efforts (and financially supported them as well!) for making NGS style guidelines happen. At some point you have to put a few people together, get out of the way and let them revamp everything. This was one of those times and I support Warp and Nikki in their work -- thank you, you two! This isn't to say that the NGS style guidelines didn't get at least a modicum of review by others -- they did. Nor is their work saying that we're going to ignore the input from the community -- we aren't. If something is broke now, lets use the community process to fix it. -- --ruaok The answer to whether or not something is a good idea should not be taken as an indication of whether I want to do it.
