+Notes on Coding Standards/Requirements for OpenAFS Source
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+Do not use $< in any cross-platform dir as it requires a reasonable
+make that is not available on all systems.
+
+Be careful with prototypes/ANSI-C in code that will be compiled for
+kernel source.  In general, avoid them until we have figured out
+exactly when/where they can be used safely.
