On the last meeting (and also before) we were discussing the codign
style. We do have a coding style. But we were never ably to completely
comply to the coding style. The problem erises for example, where ever
you write a class that should be stl compatible. This lead to the
situation where we have a wild mixture of camelcase and stl-style code
in dune-common. I would not suggest to change the stye of all
modules, bu the question is, how to procede in future. I think we must
consider changing the dune-common style guidelines to stl-style,
because especially in dune-common a lot of classes are intended to be
stl compatible. This must not be a "we change everything right away"
decision, but would affect new classes.

I vote for a change in the coding style.

Christian

PS: Even in dune-grid the style is not completely consistent. And many
	aspects of coding style were never even discussed.
