``Re: adopt one definition?'' by AxelBoldt on 2002-06-07 12:47:16
But shouldn't we make this convention explicit? When I learned topology, compact spaces were still Hausdorff, so the first thing I do when I see the word "compact" is to check the definition used. But in PlanetMath right now, that wouldn't help me, since the compactness entry doesn't explicitly say which definition PlanetMath uses.
