Kim Shepherd commented on DS-691:
---------------------------------
I've talked to a few people about the suffixes, and the general conclusion
seems to be "this will just confuse users, as a standard it hasn't really
caught on with the general Internet population, so keep KB/MB/GB in the default
i18n messages and individual repositories can customise as per their
requirements".
We should document this change somehow/somewhere, so that repository managers
aren't confused by all their files suddenly looking slightly smaller.
It's going to take a while for this to come up in a JIRA review, and the patch
looks good to me and has had +3 votes already... if there aren't any objections
in the next 24 hours, I'll commit Hardy's patch as is on the weekend. If the
suffix issue becomes controversial, we can commit that as a separate change to
the language packs. Sound good?

> This is a little nit-picky, but every time I open up the General-Handler.xsl,
> to look for code to copy/paste to my theme, the math error has bugged me, so,
> here's a patch to fix it. There are 1024 bytes in a KB, 1048576 bytes in a
> MB, and 1073741824 bytes in a GB. The current "metric" numbers are incorrect,
> and inflate the file sizes displayed by the XMLUI.
