You can probably send them right here to this list for review. Other janitorial ideas might exist in bugzilla with the "janitor" keyword. It'd probably be nice to file the janitorial possibilities you notice and don't patch yourself to bugzilla with that keyword attached, as well (e.g, when I want to dabble in xserver/libs land instead of just driver-land). > * Lots of X libraries still use Xmalloc and others, instead of the > regular stdlib functions (despite the defines in Xserver now > referencing the stdlib functions). I believe there are ongoing efforts in this area. Those working on that will hopefully comment about that in more detail, or you can check some of the latest months archives. > * I still see some xorgcvs and XFree86 cvs tags on various files in > different libraries.

Same deal as with Xmalloc :) > * Changing constructs like '#if x' to '#ifdef x' or 'if !x' to > '#ifndef x' These are not equal checks. #ifdef x evaluates to true, while #if x might not (if the definition has a value of 0), etc. Regards, Mart Raudsepp _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
