I will be attempting to add unit-tests to some of the existing code.  I know
you were contemplating writing a Junit book sometime back, your suggestions
and help in this area are most welcome.  Clover is a commercial tool, do you
know of anything similar in the OSS world that will identify test-coverage
holes? Or, maybe we can please with Clover folks to donate a license to us?
Could you help us with a brief guideline (on Wiki, possibly) that would
recommend what, how to test in Keel? 

One thing some of us have talked about was using stubs or mock objects for
other services that the service under test depends on.  Are there any
guidelines, tools available to help with that?

By minimal, I was thinking that at least the public constructors, methods,
fields and the class itself would need to be documented.  Can checkstyle
provide the checking for us?  I think checkstyle can be invoked from a CVS
trigger: so, upon commit, we could check for Javadoc, as well as reformat the
code to some (to be determinded) coding standard.
