> I plan to do the following changes to UTF8Reader:
> * Improve the error reporting when hitting a UTF8 decoding error (currently
> an UTFDataFormatException with no message). This might also lead to deleting
> one helper method for generating an exception (the one with no message).
> * Improve error reporting for trying to use the reader after it has been
> closed (currently an IOException with no message).
> * Remove trailing spaces, and add a few newlines here and there.
> * Replace tabs in the file with spaces.
> Now, the last point can be discussed, but here are my arguments for doing it:
> * The file now has a mix of tabs and spaces (but still more tabs).
> * Spaces are the preferred/required method of indentation.
> * I want to get it fixed before the branch is cut, which makes it easier to
> port fixes from trunk/10.3-NEXT to 10.3. If I don't make it for 10.3, I won't
> do it.
> * I don't see it as very likely that we will back-port major fixes to this
> class on the 10.2 branch. If we have to, I will volunteer :)
> * Since so much else of the Clob "infrastructure" has changed recently, this
> seems like a good time to do the clean-up.
> Please raise your concern as soon as possible if you want to veto these
> changes.
> I do plan to commit them tomorrow.
