But take care about the following points
• All public classes and methods should have informative Javadoc
comments. http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/writingdoccomments/
• Code should be formatted according to Sun's conventions
(http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/), with one exception:
• indent two spaces per level, not four.
• Contributions should pass existing unit tests.
• New unit tests (http://www.junit.org/) should be provided to
demonstrate bugs and fixes.

So you only have to set the formatting style go: Java Convention and use 2
spaces instead of tabs.

After doing this you can create a JIRA issue and attach the formatter.xml for
everybody else to use.
