in reply to On maintaining old code and the battle of styles...

Excellent thread.

You have to choose whether

For a quick fix-up, leave the coding style uniform -- that way there's only one style to complain about.

If you're taking over the module (which seems more likely seeing as the original authour has abandoned it), then by all means rip it to shreds, then piece it back together again. Make the signal to noise ratio as high as possible.
