Commons has a rule of not releasing items from the sandbox, and not
promoting it unless it's ready for a release and has a community. With
hindsight I think CSV should have gone through the incubator to build
community; it's a bit weird fitting the incubator concepts and commons
concepts together.

Generally it's the same advice as the thread over on incubator - try
and help with a release on the dependency side. In this case -
involvement would be much appreciated, any asf committer can have
karma to the sandbox on request (are you asking? :) ).

Sure, I'd be willing to help out.  While simple, CSV-like files are
ubiquitous and having a small simple library with no other
dependencies is a very good thing!

Good thinking. I know you've a few issues reported btw - I've been a
bit flu-like this week so have been low on energy/time.
