        Would like to see more CMP (coding standards) compliant patches;
        was looking at a patch in STR #2425, and noticed coding style
        variations (indenting) not to standard:
        http://seriss.com/people/erco/tmp/str-2425-indent.png

        The coding standards for FLTK are here:
        http://fltk.org/cmp.php

        Note that we use tabstops set to 8 (which might be part of the
        problem in that patch) and all indenting should be two space.

        Basically if 'more' is used to view the code from a default
        terminal, indenting should look right. (Even though looking at
        a patch as shown above isn't always accurate due to the +/-
        inserts, I checked the patch applied and still saw indent issues)

        Also, what platforms do you have access to for testing?
        Since you'd be the first and only dev on FLTK2 for a while,
        we want to be sure you can run well on your own.

        Regarding approval, it's up to our devs to give a vote on it,
        but it's tough though because none of us are really on 2.0.
        Mike has been the overall project lead; you probably need
        to talk to him. (He also hosts the website as well as has setup
        and admins the entire svn system for FLTK and CUPS).

        I imagine we need a strong lead on 2.0 to stay on top of things;
        changes compile on all platforms we support (linux/windows/osx),
        as I believe there are still regular snapshots made of 2.x that
        are copied to downstream mirrors when changes are made.
