Some of the source files can be taken with only changing the header
files. Read the comment in this patch

http://cvs.reactos.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/reactos/lib/kernel32/misc/profile…

By changing the formating just to make it look like the coding style in the rest of the
dll makes
generating a diff of a change later almost imposssible. The question is "Why should
we rewrite
large sections of code that can be shared with Wine just because of coding style
issues?".

Here is another example. This file was rippped from Wine. Other than the header changes
the
function body is intact.

http://cvs.reactos.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/reactos/lib/gdi32/objects/linedda…

Should I be forced to reformat it to match the coding style in the rest of the dll which
will then
make generating diffs a pain?

Thanks
Steven
