I think you make some really good points.  Let me try to
summarize:

(a) If you followed the documented coding guidelines,
    and they led you astray, then I concede.  The fault
    is in the documentation and should be updated.  No one
    can ding you for doing what the docs asked you to do.

(b) There may be a disconnect between the docs provided
    to encourage new Samba developers and those that
    have spent many cycles under an apprenticeship with
    long term Samba developers.  New in this sense means
    that one doesn't have the sense of history of the
    project's lifetime.

The conclusion then would be that if participating in Samba
development requires some type of personal guidance from
an established developer on issues of coding style and
tradition, then this will have scaling issues due to the
number and time of existing core devs.

This is all just personal philosophy from me.  I can't
speak for everyone, but it has given me some points to
consider.





cheers, jerry
