      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      (This applies to all versions.)

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Thanks for all your work in making Java such a great
      tool/platform.

      It is very helpful having the Java SDK source files
      available when trying to understand how the SDK works.
      Obviously lots of developers worked at developing Java,
      leading to many different coding styles. I believe your
      source code would be easier for you to maintain and look
      more professional to the end users if you used a code
      formatter tool on it.

      There is a great open source code formatter tool available
      at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jalopy/.

      My recommendation is you apply this on the Java SDK code for
      your next release. Just making the indenting consistent
      would be helpful.
