We might have to agree to disagree here, then, but that's fine. If there was a clear consensus that one style or another is better, we should go with that. > Also, I don't > think we use all-caps name anywhere else in WebKit so it's inconsistent with > the convention we use elsewhere. > I don't think this particularly matters. We should design a format based on what is most useful in this context. -- Dirk _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
