absolutely not. the default value for tab is 8 spaces and so it shall
remain. please, take a look at the file Documentation/CodingStyle shipped
with every version of the linux kernel. it contains very good coding style
rules, which nc6 was written according to.

please, remove the vi:ts=4 sw=4 lines you have added to the files.

especially function arguments. e.g.:

foo(arg1,
    arg2);

do you mean we should create an announcement mailing list? should we
create a single announcement ml for all the software or a ml for each
of the software packages?
