Hi Lars, In the past we have stuck to the 80 characters rule for all text files. However, the checkstyle plugin that is used to enforce this only looks at the Java source files.
In order to change the limit from 80 to 100/120 - we would need to call a vote. My personal opinion is -0 on this since I work on different projects all of which use the 80 char limit. Changing this for one of the project will be a tad annoying. However, if there is consensus I will be happy to adopt that standard.
