However, my purpose in being here is to ensure that there is a usable, freely-available source code version of the HTTP standard. That means source code that can be read and understood by others, not source code that can be barely understood by our own project. Running indent is only the first step in making the code easier to understand. I am willing to wait until 1.2 is ready for final release before deciding where to place my energy on cleaning the code. However, I want ALL outside project code to be committed to a 2.0 branch before the final release of 1.2 (if nothing else, this will give us time to let the last beta stew before the official release). On the day that 1.2 is released, I want to be able to make a decision about which code base is better for describing HTTP, and if 1.2 is the only code available then that's what I'll cleanup and prep for a minor release. ......Roy
