I've seen the Ada Quality and Style guide several years back and adopted a lot from that. Again, most Ada code I've seen follows that to some extent - at least in the more professional examples. (Then you see stuff that was clearly written by C programmers who were trying to make Ada look like C. :-) Naming conventions and such quite often change with problem domains, so its more important to stay consistent within the project rather than impose something across the board. If there is a C/C++ "Style" anywhere, I can say that I've seen lots of code that had no signs of consistent style at all - so it must not be very well adhered to.
