Comment (by ncohen):
In this thread I see two persons giving an opinion:
- Jeroen says that we should follow Python (he does not say what he thinks
should happen with multi-sentences exception)
- Daniel says that we should follow english.
You said here that you prefered English, same for me. That's 3 against
one, so here lies the majority.
Volker says that indeed multi sentences is against python convention
already, and your branch does nothing about that.
So please do not consider that there is a majority for this change, and if
you insist on enforcing it please open a thread devoted to it.
"All sentences except the first start with an upper case, and all
sentences except the last end with a point" does not sound exceptionally
enticing to me.
