It's a real pain to integrate works done by people having a different formatting style habit. In my opinion, enforcing that everybody uses UTF-8 as a default encoding is the first rule to establish. I'm currently working with people in Mauritius and, I can understand why, some of them encode their files using UTF-16... It's fine but our standard is UTF-8 and, sadly, our internal SCM tools (targeting IBM Synergy 6.5a) don't like developers to mess up with that;(
And yes... distributing a enforced checkstyle formatting pass automatically while integrating (preferably every night) is a must have best practice ! We use maven for that and a very special Hudson plugin : blame:) I know all other build managers in the world just smiled when they read the former sentence;)
Hum.... I don't like this "all your base belongs to us" kind of "joke"....
Another, funnier, joke to make on IRC is:
joe> hey, madzerg, how do you manage to put colors in your messages on IRC ?? madzerg> It's simple, just press CTRL-ALT-F4 and a number to use the color you want... example : CTRL-ALT-F4 143 (143 stands for red). joe> Yyyyesss !! Thanks, I'll try it NOW !!! *** J0E has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer) madzerg> Hehe !!:)... This "peer" guy is such a dumbass !!!:)
ahahahah ahah ahaha ! Sorry...;)
Sarkozy betrayed Chirac during the 1995 "elections" so I don't think Chirac helped him to make his way to the "Elysée" !!
I, for myself, would think that nowadays the most... "appealing" apect of a word processor or spreadsheet app (?? sorry for my bad ortograph...) app would be it's communications possibilities !!! ???
In fact, the real power of these office apps is their ability to talk with a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) app or any portal written in any language (C#, Java, Ruby, PHP, etc...) to automate workflows and work activities "items" (enumerate any business activities you can imagine here;))
What is the greatest expansion "tool" of any office suite now ? I think it's the smart tags, the custom tasks panes which can be extended for your particular business !!
Does these features can be included in any of these web based applications ? What are thy capable of beside their obvious goal ?
I, for myself (again;)), don't know which features are offered by the Google "suite" or any web based office suite in this area... Do you ?
And... what do you think of my point of view on the future of this... 'industry' ?

As an integration tester, I have to second what you're saying !!

My 2 cents
- Sarkozy is Chirac's protege
