No problem, see my other mail! I can revert the @link changes. By the way, I
noticed shortly, that @code is Java 5 only. So I could replace it by
<code></code>.

For me the whole class Javadocs were a little bit over-linkified with links
pointing to the same class itself. I only wanted to remove links (as the
guide from sun notes), that are somehow pointing to the exact same class the
description is about (in the class description).

I am a real fan of linking everything, so links between methods is very
important!
