Wow, FindBugs errors went to zero and no one noticed? Are you sure the
report is correct?

Rather than going deeper, I'd suggest going broader. Nearly every high
priority error is a real bug. Many of the medium priority errors require
more analysis and judgment to determine whether they're really errors.

The "developer report" only addresses a subset of all the code in GlassFish.
The "fancy report" (which is using FindBugs 1.3.6-rc1) still shows lots of
high priority issues. No doubt some of them are in code that we don't
touch, and so should be excluded. But the rest should be addressed.

And isn't it past time to integrate these two reports, possibly using the
Hudson FindBugs plugin?
