According to Dr. Heinz M. Kabutz DRY should win, at least if you extrapolate from the vendetta he has against a very common convention in Java today, the static final LOGGER, where the category of the logger is the full name of the Java class it is in. His solution to me lacks some real world (i.e. production tested) sensibility.
