[ANNC] New procedure to improve MySQL coding style

[Konstantin Osipov]

Hello,

A few minutes ago, I added a new section to 
http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/MySQL_Internals_Coding_Guidelines:

--cut
How we maintain the server coding guidelines
--------------------------------------------

We are committed to have a single coding style for core MySQL
server. Storage engines, however, may have an own coding style:
Falcon and NDB styles are documented later in this manual.

The server coding style is governed by a group of representatives
from each technical team: Optimiser, Runtime, Replication, Backup
Engines and Maria.

Currently these representatives are:

    * Sergey Petrunia -- Optimizer
    * Konstantin Osipov - Runtime
    * Mats Kindahl - Replication
    * Chuck Bell - Backup
    * Sergey Vojtovich - Engines
    * Guilhem Bichot - Maria. 

The group accepts and considers change proposals. Each proposal
must include an implementation strategy, and is first published on
Internals mailing list for a public discussion. When the
discussion is over, the group of representatives holds a vote, and
the change is accepted if it's approved by a simple majority of
the ballots. The submitter of the change request then carries out
its implementation.
--end cut

In accordance with this new procedure, I welcome you to submit
change requests here, on this list. 

In addition, as soon as requests start accumulating, I'll create a
new Forge wiki page where requests, their status, and other
style-related discussions will be documented.

Thank you,
