Just a HEADs up on whats going in today... (pun intended :).

The major SourceFormat is all thats freezing HEAD.

I've been working on the basic prep and setup for it over the last two days. It appears the FreeBSD port is astyle is still too old for a regular maintenance script to keep small whitespace typos from creeping in. The available ports upgrade is still too old, so not worth upgrading to a useless version.

Also, Alex is busy and has not yet been able to verify the status of four large patches he has waiting for merge.

With that info and an eye on re-opening HEAD. I've decided to go ahead with the main push of the reformat. With two differences to the original plan:

* I've omitted the files touched by Alexes patches from this run.
  Reformat for them will be done and committed when the patches are
  verified or updated.

* I may run reformats irregularly on trunk manually afterwards, like we
  used to do irregular bootstrap commits when someone forgot to do it in
  a merge.

* It WONT be run automated during maintenance updates on squid-cache just yet.


This opens up the possibility of doing the format right now to open HEAD. And reduces somewhat the worry of getting new additions just right in format for those of you without access (yet) to astyle 1.22.



If you have any worries about merging the newest changes down from trunk. You should be able to follow this procedure:

1. commit local changes to branch
2. merge up to rev 9275 from trunk in the old format.
3. check and commit the changes to local branch.
4. merge re-format revision change from trunk.
5. check for clashes and revert those files to your local ones

6. MAYBE: If you have astyle 1.22 you can revert any badly clashing files and reformat yourself the updated version now instead of merging the reformat down.

7. commit the reformat updates to local branch.
8. check your branches "bzr diff -r submit: " patch and cleanup any changes that should not be there.



PS:
  Alex anything to report on any of these?
