Contracts uses Googles Style Guide

With the following deviations

Arrangement:

1. The most accessible stuff is at the top.

@Override
public void doSomePublicallyDelaredAction() {
}

2. When possible all code is ordered by accessibility.

public
protected 
package
private

3. Public static final fields at the top.

public static final String APPLICATION_NAME = "MyApp";

4. All other fields should be private and at the bottom. Create accessors methods instead.

// the last thing someone needs to know are the 
// implementation fields used to implement a feature

private final CountDownLatch thresholdLatch;
private final Map<String,String> cache;

5. If Java allowed imports at the bottom, I would require it :)
