which case a single space is required.
/**

WDYT?
+1, with the amendment that in javadocs it's not required, but allowed.
This might cause a refactoring conflict: X commits a codestyle change
removing the spaces, Y commits a codestyle change adding the spaces.
Since I'm using git, and I always do "git add --interactive", I can
filter out this kind of changes.
