I don't know why the french one is wet, but the translation would be "poule mouillée". In fact, I don't really see the need to modify many files just for some kind of style. (same reason why I think that checkpatch is a better place for a test than submitting hundreds of patches based on coccinelle) From your point of view, does auditing and fixing these missing \n make sense? Wouldn't it just be a lot of noise for a small benefit? CJ
