I think you should propose a change (of reformatting code) .. and let it
'sink' in .. and generate discussion .. and then set an appropriate
release/milestone to achieve by. Coders can therefore share the burden
amongst them, to achieve the goal, and Voila, you have code conforming
to a 'standard' you're agreed on :)
