I'm happy to start adding comments to the classes and/or package.html files. >> The package.html files also need some work. > > They're pretty tiny, so shouldn't be much [unless you have visions of > writing a lot in there]. Actually, when looked at in context, they are sufficient. Though it might be worth adding some details on thread safety to them. == Given that we have changed all the package names, the Clirr report is fairly useless. Is it possible to use it to compare corresponding classes? E.g. maybe use Shade to create a lang3 version of lang2 or vice-versa? Or maybe Clirr has an option to alias classes? > Hen > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
