RE: Q - code convention if with no {}

[Russell Butek <bu...@us.ibm.com>]

We should do our best to follow the Sun conventions, but I agree it's not a
major priority to fix our lapses.  As I'm fixing other things, if I notice
non-compliance, like missing {}'s, I fix it, but I'm not going out of my
way to fix them all.

Axis does attempt to follow the Sun conventions, except we're in general a
little more lax about them.  The main things we really focus on are the
four-space-no-tabs indents and class/var naming.  We're less stringent thus
far about brace locations, etc.

I don't particularly mind if we move in the direction of greater compliance
with the standards, but I don't feel it's a major priority either.
