If this were a democracy I'd vote for .cc and .h, but anything we choose
is fine with me.

I *much* prefer lower_case_with_underscores, as I find it much easier to
read than intraWordCapitalization.  This grows ever more important as
my eyes age.

Most C++ projects I've looked at in the past, though, seem to use the
interCapStyle.  I had been assuming we would do the same simply because
it appears to be the standard idiom of the language we're working in.
But if it's open for discussion... I would *really* like it if we
standardized on lower_case_with_underscores.

I have no recollection of saying this.  What was the context, please?
