Done.  I also obsoleted the attachments and made a note that I will tackle
all the Checkstyle complaints when the 1.3 code base is deemed stable and
otherwise ready for release.

By the way, I don't mind looking at PMD stuff as well, and Jlint and
FindBugs too, at the same time... I think only PMD is also run by the
build IIRC?  The only issue is that the majority of the Checkstyle fixes
will be relatively safe and benign, the things found by those other tools
may be somewhat risky and certainly will require discussion in many cases.
 But, if anyone thinks its a good idea to use all four tools and address
as much as possible (I do), then I'll take it on as well.
