Date: Sun, 15 Jun 2008 15:51:24 +0930 From: David Newall <davidn@...idnewall.com> To: Németh Márton <nm127@...email.hu> CC: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de>, Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@...ox.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, Trivial Patch Monkey <trivial@...nel.org>, LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] 8139too: clean up spaces and TABs These patches, which simply play around with white space, are undesirable, in my opinion. It doesn't make the code better, just changes the aesthetics to one that's more to your liking, and surely it makes it less pleasing to others. I see no benefit in such changes, as opposed to a certain cost and risk, which all changes carry. Every change requires an expense of other people's brain cycles, if I can put it that way, and on this sort of change, I sincerely think it's pointless. Sorry to come down all negative. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
