Hi,

As the one voting for 4 spaces, my argument was that this seems to be 
the defacto standard in the official OpenERP code (even if violated at 
times). Can someone from OpenERP SA confirm that this is an explicit 
guideline internally? I think it would be very wise not to deviate from 
that then, except if OpenERP SA would be open to switch for new code as 
a smaller tab width does make for more readable code.

Cheers,
Stefan.
