On this, should we then create top-level directory in the project to hold sundry things such as this? If we commit an Eclipse* formatter now, for example, we would probably finalise things quickly as we see the results - a few discussions, a couple of tweaks and commits and we can forget about it. :) Johnathan * Not sure who is using what IDE, but Eclipse is common enough to seem like a good starting point.
