I prefer 2-space indentation, since it makes it much easier to fit code
into 80 columns.

Folks,
I'm fine with either 2 space or 4 space indentations. I'm -1 for any tab
indentations though, and I think we all agree on that.
Cheers,
Chris

I prefer wider indentations since they make it very clear when you
really should start breaking your code into smaller methods.
Also, 4 spaces is what the Sun Java conventions explicitly mention as
the unit of indentation.
