In XP, "communication" does not refer to establishing formal coding guidelines.
While XP does advise communicating with the code (among many other ways), and
does suggest that the team needs to code in a similar-enough way to make that
communication possible, the real issues around communication in XP have to do
with communication between one human and another, using conversation and many
other forms, not just coding.
