Agree, and think commons should specify common settings for both (the
pmd ones might be harder to agree on though, so might vary).

Uh ...I think checkstyle might be a hard one. And TBH I think that's
not worth the debate. People can be very passioned about this. I also
just hate it to be locked in into some of the styling rules sometimes.

I think checkstyle like it is, is the wrong approach. It would be
really cool to have the code in the scm in a certain style and then
format it on checkout and on back to the standard format on commit.
But I fear that's a pretty wild idea :)


> + jdepend (quality metrics)

Unless you really get what it means and use it, I'd leave it out.

yepp ...leave it out

> + tasklist (to do list)

You may be able to achieve this with checkstyle instead, this one is
really just for convenience.

I prefer the tasklist one

> + clirr (binary compatibility)

You might also look at Torsten's recent work on jardiff for Maven 2.

Unfortunately codehaus was down when I wanted to commit. So it's still
sitting in Jira ..and on my disk

> + developer-activity (SCM activity per developer)
> + file-activity (SCM activity per file)

probably optional

I like the developer-activity one because it shows you the latest
changes. Something like the changelog report but based on the scm
commits.

> - jdiff (same as clirr)

It's actually quite different, but I think it is best used on-demand to
browse the changes rather than as a report like clirr.

Hm.. nevery really used that one when I had clirr/jardiff though.

cheers
