To me there often is much more to get upset on than brace styles. I can deal with every style (as long as it is the same style in the whole module of course). Meaningless variable names or code with a lot of untreated warnings from the compiler (deserts of trivial to solve warnings hiding the really important one) - that drives me nuts! Brace styles? No, not really...

After far more than 20 years with C/C++ (and other languages too) I put it this way: I strongly recommend not using goto - except if it is really necessary. There should be no dogma but only good reasoning. There are good reasons for using a goto (most goto-s I've seen did not, but few did). In total I personally used it about maybe 10 times over all those years, but (as far as I see it) not breaking readability but guaranteeing readability at those perticular points. Of course it would have been possible to avoid the goto-s there too but only if I would have been breaking the "natural" logic of that code (or at least what seemed "natural" to me ;-)). Making a long talk short, I think: "There is no silver bullet".
