Newssgroups Alex? I couldn't see it listed. Perhaps a yahoo group or other? thanks
Don...
Taken to that extreme, no. However, I don't have a problem with informal, conversational comments as long as the source code is for in-house use only and the customer is not going to see it.

As clients go, this one was as top-tier as they come. OTOH they didn't get to see the source...
thanks Alex :-)
That makes all the difference in the world ;-) If nobody but you sees the source, then you are only commenting (or not) for yourself and can apply whatever standards suit you (or none at all).
The clients I work for have standards and procedures for all aspects of development and perform formal reviews. They "get" to see my source, review my source, and if they don't like what they see, they may choose not to use my services any longer. Like I said -- I'd never be able to get away with it.
I'm pretty sure we understand each other.
