No objections, just wandering myself whether it was considered to initially only apply the new style to new chunks of code? Using `git-clang-format` or similar as suggested by Anthony. Is the adjusted style expected to be too different from the current one as such approach would lead to hard to read code due to the mixed styles? Thanks, Roger.
