FWIW, http://www.jwz.org/doc/tabs-vs-spaces.html matches my opinion on the
subject, although I know some people like all indentation to be done with
tabs so that different people can choose how they want them to display in
their editors.  But mixing tabs and spaces seems like a bad idea to me.

My personal preference would be to convert all tabs to spaces assuming an
eight-space tab stop, but I'll live with whatever we decide to do.
