It think the problems here are: (a) death by a thousand cuts - code that has many tiny stylistic differences is harder to read, harder to reason about and harder to get correct (b) if the existing code is of highest possible quality, it sets the bar for incoming code. Requiring new code to be significantly better than the old code just makes new contributors resentful. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
