Such a policy appears to strongly depend on individual projects, as people's perception is not universally identical. Speaking for myself, I have problems parsing sequences of words which pretend to be a sentence while they are not. So I do assume that there are strong feelings in either direction. Ask three persons and get four opinions. :) I always assumed that there is a difference between documentation and "non-documentation" (source code comments, commit messages), where the latter are not prose and don't pretend to be. But now that I learned that this is the policy in Yocto and thus in ELDK, there's no problem following it. Just did not know yet. > Acked-by: Marek Vasut <[email protected]> Thanks! virtually yours Gerhard Sittig -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr. 5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: +49-8142-66989-0 Fax: +49-8142-66989-80 Email: [email protected] _______________________________________________ eldk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/eldk
