On the commons web site, under the charter page: New packages may be proposed to the Jakarta Commons mailing list. To be accepted, a package proposal must receive majority approval of the subproject committers. Proposals are to identify the rationale for the package, its scope, its interaction with other packages and products, the Commons resources, if any, to be created, the initial source from which the package is to be created, and the initial set of committers. As stated in the Jakarta guidelines, an action requiring majority approval must receive at least 3 binding +1 votes and more +1 votes than -1 votes.
Basically, just submit the text of the PROPOSAL file as a [VOTE] new package - utils. You have me as a committer. My only question is can we split out the io stuff into the io package?
