Hi all,

BeanUtils2 uses the maven code style rules. Every now and then I have to
reject patches because they don't follow these conventions. I'd like to
change the formatting rules to a more standard rule set for the following
reasons:

- maven style is very verbose, since it uses a lot of spaces and curly
braces have to be placed on new lines
- a great majority of our components uses the Sun/Eclipse formatting with
spaces
- Setting up IDEs like IntelliJ or Eclipse is easier with the Sun/Eclipse
style, because the only thing you have to change is the tab policy. Using
the maven style implies that one has to import the rule set.

If no one objects, I'll reformat the source code and update the check style
rules.

Regards,
Benedikt
