I'd like to understand how you'd envisage using it. Do you mean a one-time convert of the code (with appropriate review of course)? Or require that a module be acceptable before it gets checked in? Or some combination?

I'm a Luddite (and I'm old enough to remember Ken Thompson's - possibly alleged - work on the C compiler) so I'd be worried about letting some random code reformat my code without any external review - particularly if the code came from a project which you seem to indicate is not being maintained.

Don't get me wrong I think that automatic style checking is a great help and forcing conformance has got to help, but I'm hoping to hear that you proposing some "checks and balances".
