Also, bear in mind that a class with static methods only might still not 
be thread-safe if they have shared mutable state that is not properly 
synchronized.  For example:

@NotThreadSafe
public class FooFactory {
   private static int fooCount;

   public static Foo newFoo() {
     ++fooCount;
     return new Foo();
   }

   public static getFooCount() { return fooCount; }
}
