No. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to group the code in my 
Common project, the stuff that gets used by many of the other projects.

I am chronic about second-guessing myself. I suppose I've never had a lot 
of encouragement of the "you're brilliant" kind along the way ;-)

At least you know what you're doing! I have perfectionist tendencies 
without really being sure what I'm doing; try finding perfection when you 
don't really have a clear picture of what it is! :-)

I don't really see packages as that big a deal though. Whether I import 
one or five to twenty-five in a given class doesn't seem that important 
though. More packages probably makes the Javadocs more impressive looking 
at first glance but if the underlying code doesn't make sense, then it's 
all nonsense anyways....
