So perhaps it's just me, but that's an awful lot of elisp code for readers to wade through; many of those readers will not be all that interested in it.
Can I suggest an alternative? Make a kernel-dot-emacs.txt in a form that interested people can pull it (nearly) directly into their .emacs files, then add a reference to the CodingStyle document. That makes the stuff available for interested developers without rubbing everybody's noses in it. Make sense?
Thanks,
jon
