Subject: [beanutils][digester] about time for a release?

isn't it about time for new releases for beanutils and digester?
I went through last weekend and snuffed most of the bugs against these.  I
think we need to decide what to do about:

15067 [BeanUtils] BasicDynaBean, BasicDynaClass not Serializable
(you fixed this one)

15170 [BeanUtils] BeanUtils.setProperty doesn't convert primitive wrappers
i can't see a reason not to make this change. can you enlighten me?

before finalizing a release plan.  In addition, there's some outstanding
enhancement requests:

 7135 [BeanUtils] Misleading error message ...
i had a look at this before and couldn't work out a good way to do this.

 7226 [BeanUtils] Nested bean collection
no opinion

13098 [Digester] Digester performance
i'm -0 but scott has always been very keen. i no longer have any strong objections if someone wants to commit it.

14848 [BeanUtils] ConvertUtils is not (thread)safe -- actually an
      issue of the static collections, not thread safety
i think that this needs to be left until the next release. it would open up a lot of exciting possibilities but i think we owe people a bug fix release first.

and one change I don't think should be implemented, but I owe the reporter
a test case to prove that it would break many current Digester users:

12997 [Digester] Call the method as soon as the last parameter is
      encountered
+1
