Hello, Can we replace this task. We get so many references to it, and despite the fact we answered the offers for help there was never a result out of it. I am unsure why that is, and maybe we could improve our people skills, but it is rather obvious to me that this particular help request does not attract the right engagement (besides the wording is outdated)
We could replace it for a more generic Apache Commons Feedback wanted task: if you use a Apache Commons components share your experience, problems and Feedback on the User List. - or similar?

Thanks for your interest. The wording in the " helpwanted" request is a bit out-of-date, since the release happened last December. However, it is still very useful to try out the code in real applications and report of any problems. You could also design "toy" applications tailored to illustrate features of the library (see the "commons-rng-examples" module in the source repository). You could also have a look at the open issues (although those might not be beginner tasks). Don't hesitate to ask more questions, so we can focus more precisely on what you want to do.
