I maintain a few private branches of the OpenSSL source code, including some 
custom patches and changes. To keep up with things and stay up to date I review 
the changes at least every release, and semi-regularly try to keep up with 
what's in change control.  I'm actually looking forward to the change; although 
it will mean a one-time reformat I don't think it'll be a big inconvenience. 
And once it's done I think it'll make the future changes easier to read. 

Thanks for doing it!

We appreciate the issue.  At a minimum, there will be pre- and post-indent 
tags.  And the script we use to do the indentation is available (and will be in 
the release) so that people with modified versions can "play along at home" as 
it were.

We had a great deal of discussion about this, and it's not something we're 
doing casually.  We think it's the best way to move forward, even though some 
folks will be inconvenienced.
