I'm not a contributer, but just to mention about putting field at the
end of a class definition, I agree.. It tends to jive better with the
concept of encapsulation.. Anyone reading the source can see what
constructors and public methods (sorted to the top) are available first.
They shouldn't have to worry about fields unless they are getting into
the guts. Since many OSS projects (not struts) only offer source as
their doco, it allows visitors to quickly get up to speed with the API
without worrying about the internals. Just my thoughts on this..
