I tend to find 80 characters a little bit short. Back in prehistoric Geotools
time (around 2002) we agreed about 100 characters wide for java source files. I
admit that this convention seems to be somewhat abandonned in practice (our
lines are often longer)...
The rational for 80 character lines was printing. Now it is email (I don't
think
that many peoples will want to print Geotools code base). But to me, short
lines
sometime make them more difficult to read, we it force us to split a "natural"
line. Do I'm the only one to feel like that?

SVN just replaces $Id$ by the revision number, date, time and the user name of
the last commiter. Everything is normal there :).
