(Adam gave me strict instructions to ignore this list, but I guess on 
this occasion he'll let me off ;-) ).

I have to confess to introducing yet another tool packaging style :-(. 
The "purest" style is that adopted by the logbook and announcements, 
where each tool goes in it's own package with it's own corresponding 
facility. Many facilities go in org.bodington.servlet.facilities (which 
is where the questionnaire one was too). A lot of the classes to do with 
assessment tools go in the org.bodington.assessment package. For reasons 
I forget I now, it was driving me nuts having to split up the work on 
the questionnaire between its facility and other classes between 
different directories, so I moved it to be with all the other 
questionnaire classes. At the time it struck me as a half-way house 
between being in a common directory (least desirable) to being in it's 
own package (most desirable). Presumably, the long-term solution would 
be for each assessment tool (short-answer paper, MCQ, peer assessment, 
etc) to be in it's own package a la logbooks / announcments (?).
