   I have a general question about max line length. [This 
commit](https://github.com/apache/couchdb/commit/df37da6662be6cc62e9c866eee4544000f5329c4)
 explicitly sets the max line length to 120, up from its default of 96. For 
Erlang code, the current consensus (and also @davisp's 
[emelio](https://github.com/cloudant-labs/emilio/blob/master/priv/emilio.config#L23-L24))
 appears to be 80, for which there is [ample 
precedent](https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/a/222998). Because it 
forces you to write more concise code, and it’s great being able to have two 
code windows open side by side (on a 15" laptop), I hope we also adopt 80 for 
Elixir code. But I'm curious to what others think it should be.
