I also thing that lang shoud get a release. Although, IMO,these
classes should maybe move somewhere else ([text?]).

There is (was? can't check CVS at the moment) another problem with lang.
I reported it some time ago but got no answer:

Class
  org.apache.commons.lang.time.FastDateFormat
is a bit broken at the method
   org.apache.commons.lang.time.FastDateFormat.parseObject(String,
ParsePosition)

This method is documented as "unsupported" BUT INSTEAD of just throwing an UnsupportedOperationException, it returns a null.

Please replace the current implementation with this one:

   public Object parseObject(String source, ParsePosition pos) {
       throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
   }

I had the experience of having my app behaving as if there was a parsing
problem, when the above exception would immediatly inform me that this operation is unsupported. =:o/


Have fun,

"lang".

It would make a nice o.a.c.text.markup sub-sub-project.


Personally, I have no idea what the 'markup stuff' is that this thread
refers to. [lang] hasn't had vast amounts added to it recently. It could do
with a release though ;-)
