I was writing two implementations of a linked list for an assignment, a doubly linked list and a circular doubly linked list. Now as the class representing a Link within the linked list is the same in both implementations, I want to use it in both.

Now I wonder which approach would be better:

Implement the Link class as a package private static member class in the first implementation and then use this class in the second implementation or make the Link class a package private class.
