+LF
Also consider: any plans to change the date in the copyright headers
to 2015 at the same time, since a mass update is being planned for
that specific day?

Hi
all,
currently eclipselink sources contains mix of line endings -
some files are using *nix style (LF), some win style (CRLF) and
the rest is a mix of *nix and win style (some lines end with LF
while others with CRLF). Since we are at the beginning of 2.7
development it looks like a good time to me to unify line endings
in our codebase to avoid complete rewrites of files in the future.
Why we should do that?
-make it easier to review incoming as well as own (outgoing)
changes
-avoid noise in git log
-use https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-line-endings as
a guide to properly set up local development environment
Drawbacks:
-one-time full rewrite of some files in the repository
-some backports to previous streams will require manual
changes/merges
When?
if there will be an agreement, I'd like to perform the change
next week, on Friday March 27, 2015
Which line endings should be used?
either *nix or win but definitely not a mix of them in one file
How to cast your vote?
simply reply to this email with either '+LF', '+CRLF' or 'Leave
it as it is' by Thursday March 28, 23:59.
Thanks and happy voting,
