The issue was first discussed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-76
, which is probably by I have Eclipse configured as it is. Its such a
long time ago that it hasn't been on the lists much, although there
are the occasional comments like the 'whitespace cleanup' thread about
12 months ago. [1], I only remember this because I was forever
submitting patches with the wrong order :)

All,
I've been using the following order for imports (from first to last):
org
java
javax
com
Ian told me today this is wrong, and it should be (from first to
last):
com.google
com
junit
net
org.apache.shindig
org.apache.abdera (not used in Shindig anymore)
org
java
javax
This is in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/etc/eclipse/shindig.importorder
,
but isn't explicitly described anywhere.
I've no strong opinions, and just want to get the right answer
documented in the style guide at:
http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/community/conventions/code.html
The only changes I'd like to see is removing the special-case for
com.google, and deleting the abdera reference (we don't use it
anymore).
