I can't find the email, but I could have sworn when I first started that
I was referred to the Java coding guidelines at
http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConvTOC.doc.html
If we agree this is as good as any other standard, it would be good to
adopt it as our own coding guideline and publish this somewhere...
I do know one key standard: four-space tabs. We seem to be fairly
inconsistent about everything else, although that said most of the code
is fairly readable.

Hm, let me try this again.
Where would a new contributor go to find Derby/Apache coding guidelines
such as our policies around copyright statements and @author tags? I
would expect to find a link to these policies under the "Contribute Code
or Documentation" section of the Community tab. But I don't see anything
relevant there.
Thanks,
