There are now both
	http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/JoelsCodingStyleCheatSheet
and
	http://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdbint/Coding-Standards.html
(the former explains it)

I believe these notes belong more to gdbint.texinfo.

Its purpose was to act first as a discussion subject before some final form
which I did not think much about so far.  While it may be clear I have found
there are some disagreements so possible changes to the rules could have also
effect on the final / largest patchset check-in.

But you are right it would be best, after it gets approved (at least by
a timeout) it would be great to move it to gdbint.texinfo, or I could.


Thanks,
Jan
