Hi:Recently on excalibur dev I found that most (if not all) the code in excalibur-io was moved to commons-io:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40excalibur.apache.org/msg01599.htmlCocoon 2.1.x has only 3 references to exclaibur-io. They can be easily switched to commons-io.
Some other goodies: 1-Some of the methods in o.a.c.utils can be switched to commons-io 2-Lenya distribute commons-io as an additional jar. WDYT? Best Regards, Antonio Gallardo.
