Hi, I sometimes stumble across ports which contain our default modeline (claiming the Portfile should not use tabs) and then a weird mixture of tabs and spaces all over the place.
When there is no maintainer, I would always fix such a port. I once did it for a maintained port as well, just to see a commit immediately after that reverting my changes, ending up in tab-space mixture again. I agree that it's a bad habit to change the number of spaces in someone else's port, but what's our policy for ports that contain a mixture of tabs & spaces *and* the modeline? I now leave such ports intact, but it's hurting my eyes. Mojca
