I can't help thinking it would be better to just work on one copy
initially (i.e. trunk) - review whats there and do as much work as
possible before doing the generics stuff. Otherwise you're just going
to be duplicating each other. I just noticed Matt added checkstyle
rules to the branch - thats a good example of something that would be
good to sort out only once.
