Hi,
I suppose I'm not the only one who finds the current PDFBox coding style inconvenient. All the other Java projects I'm working with follow close approximations of the classic Sun Java coding conventions [1]. PDFBox doesn't, which makes the code harder to read and write at least for me.
+1
I also spent a fair amount of time reformatting my originally Sun styleguide formatted code (which is also what I'm used to) to current PDFBox style as I prepared my patch... and I think there are better ways to spend time than reformatting code :) Even if it mostly means tuning Eclipse formatting settings.
But I also agree with Mel: IMHO the reformatting commits should be reformmatting _only_, as they tend to generate big scattered diffs and sifting through them looking for functional changes would be tedious.
Best regards Igor
