Thank you.

Where do I change this?  Did I miss a few places in the descriptions?

I think we should just come up with an optional ant task that will format
the way we want to format.  There are enough tools out there to do this.
Then we could just run it over new contributions to format them before
checkin.  Once I am in an existing file, I can conform to whatever style is
already used without too much effort.

Ack!  I know there is a bug lurking there somewhere.  I can't wait to find
it. :-)

And thanks again.  I am hoping to get some version of the Watchdog stuff
checked in.  Can you point me at some of the time manager related api's you
mentioned previously?  I am going to look at it later tonight, if I get the
chance.  But first...there's work.
