When the French created the new color scheme, they assigned no meaning to the colors, and neither should we. You can associate any meaning with any color and find fault with any one of them... Yellow means "hate" in other cultures. Blue means "move over, police!". The possibilities are endless. Let's just make everything gray... Oh no, grey depresses me... Fact is, red/green is good for inline diffs, but any other color is fair game for side-by-side diffs. -- Erwin Dokter _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
