Re: cvs: pear /Mail_Mime mime.php

Hello, QA. I made a large CS commit yesterday, and received a few comments that seem like opinions, and I don't see in the CS part of the manual, so I thought it best to run them by you. First was:

true and false should be lowercase, not uppercase. My reply was:

-CUT- I don't want to overstep my bounds, here, so please take this as a simple question: Where is this indicated in the Coding Standards? The only possible refererence I can find to true being lowercase is in the Sample file, which, according to the Naming Conventions page is in error. "Constants should always be all-uppercase, with underscores to separate words." Unless, for some reason, PEAR-folk don't consider TRUE and FALSE (er.. true and false) to be constants.. ? -CUT- But I didn't CC it here. So... ? Second:

* Ditch the parentheses around the requires. The manual is also unclear on this. Is this necessary? What is "proper"?

I'll send a patches to PEAR-DOC once I get the official word. And last (only somewhat related..): What is the proper channel to obtain PEAR-DOC karma? I know docbook well enough that I won't screw it up -- I'm active on phpdoc. Should I just submit patches for the next while, and worry about this later? I'd ask systems@ directly, but I'd need someone respectable to vouch. Thanks, S
