I would like to format up 2.2.x when it is released, and then stick with it (aka format before every commit like the bad old days).
I have two issues with reformating:

1) We have at least two different coding rules in use. When we talked about coding rule for the whole Geotools project a few years ago, I really though that we agreed on Sun's convention. I had to change my way to code, because I was using slightly different conventions. Now, I see two differents way in Geotools code to put space around parenthesis (for example).

       for (int i=0; i<limit; i++) {       // Sun coding convention
       }

for( int i=0; i<limit; i++ ){ // I don't know where this convention come from
       }

Same apply to spaces in method call (Sun: method(argument); Geotools: method( argument );), while loops (Sun: while (condition); Geotools: while( condition );), etc.

If we were to apply some reformating tool, at least I would like that we choose Sun coding
   convention...
Okay, can you review the setting used in Jalopy? I thought they were Sun Conventions + GeoTools header...
I just want us to use a tool rather then argue about it...
2) I tend to align a lot of my code in tabular format. The is some formating that an automatic reformating tool can't figure out by itself. I know that there is some way to guard block of code against reformating, but guarded block would appears in a fear amount of place, which
   would defeat the purpose of code reformating...

So this would be a vote for doing nothing ...

Thanks for the feedback Martin, I want to vote +1 for formatting (and format 2.2.x before release) or -1 for no formatting (and remove that section from javadoc) - in both cases I will help move things forward. I just don't want to do +0 and let this issue slide for another release.
