Seems like my patch should be merged with the typedef page. I'm not an expert in Ant nor Java, hence some terminology is a bit imperfect.
Regarding the namespace issue, no one I talked to at my office knew anything about classloaders. I wasn't sure how to describe it, but I don't want users to need to be a Java expert to understand the docs... I will leave this patch to you to integrate -- or not.
