``adopt one definition?'' by AxelBoldt on 2002-06-06 22:18:26
Since some authors require compact spaces to be Hausdorff and others don't, it is apropriate to mention this fact in the article. But I wonder if PlanetMath should adopt one convention, so that everybody's automatic links to the compact article will give the proper definition. Otherwise, everybody has to state explicitly in every article what they mean when they say compact.
