Yes, that is correct.  At Apache, community comes first.  I don't
complain about javadoc changes that depart from Sun standards (which
we agreed to adopt earlier) and do not improve the code because I
don't consider that worth arguing about.  But I *do* complain about
practices that do not conform to community standards expected of
committers.
