 EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles
 between different editors and IDEs. The EditorConfig project consists of a
 file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor
 plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined
 styles. EditorConfig files are easily readibly and they work nicely with
 version control systems.

 Currently EditorConfig has been used in Ruby, jQuery, and many other
 projects. It helps a lot in maintaining a consistent coding style. So I
 believe the Boost community might also be interested in this, since the
 coding style issue is always a problem for C++ projects.
