Sorry, but I completly disagree. I think this is best practice.
The usage of this is obsolete in many cases but with "this" it is clear that
it is a member variable.
I also use ClassName.staticVarName to ensure that it is a static variable.
This kind of coding will be completly obsolute if IDEs support semantic
syntax highlighting to show difference between member- static and local
variables like it is already supported by the latest JDT.
Cheers,
