Correct Copyright date.

  157     public String(String original) {
  158         this.value = (original.value.length>  0)
  159                 ? original.value
  160                 : EMPTY_STRING_VALUE;  145
  161     }

Does the last case ever occur?, if you have:

  143     public String() {
  144         this.value = EMPTY_STRING_VALUE;
  145     }
