When you said "bad page" I thought the link was broken or something.  I guess 
you mean "poor page" in that it doesn't contain good content.  I agree with 
that but wouldn't consider that to be a blocker.

Is it really worth all that effort? The release notes say the package name 
changed. If I could configure the maven plugin to do that it might have 
considered it.

I disagree with this. I fixed way over 10,000 checkstyle errors. I didn't get 
to these because they are tedious and I don't know what all those magic numbers 
mean.  However, I agree with checkstyle that they should be fixed. I'd rather 
have the errors in the report so that maybe it bugs someone to fix them than 
just ignore them.

Agree - I fixed other errors Findbugs found but the fixes for those two weren't 
clear to me.  One complains about using a Random once (what is wrong with 
that?).

Did you read the News section? Isn't that clear?
