What I really wanted to say was:

I'm for keeping RandomStringUtils undeprecated in lang.

Sorry,
Pascal

It has to stay in 3.x no matter what to maintain BC.

Hi Rob,

Looking at frequency I think more number of requests coming
for RandomStringUtils for its simplicity.

RandomStringGenerator is strong , flexible but one can't use it quickly.
Also I think this tool should belong in Commons text's arsenal. I'm not
only moving RandomStringUtils  to text but changing its core logic with
using
RandomStringGenerator which seems fair to me. So finally we should release
text-1.2 rather doing rollback of deprecation and release lang 3.6.1,
WDYT
?

I definitely lean this direction, but if I recall correctly we drew “line
between [lang] and [text]” to be: a piece of functionality should go in
[lang] if the arbitrary java developer would probably want it, whereas text
is geared towards folks actually doing text manipulation [1].

Personally I’m a +0 to +1 on doing this, but I wanted to gauge other
folks’ thoughts here because I feel like we’re in that grey area here. That
said, I’m perfectly willing to roll a 1.2 [text] release.

Cheers,
-Rob

Hello Benedikt,

How about we keep that deprecated in lang and release Text-1.2 ?

[snip]

I’m on board with this if folks are complaining and the original intent
was to deprecate things in [lang]. Why not roll forward as opposed to
backwards?

But, that opens the question: Is RandomStringUtils something that most
folks would want (i.e. should it be in [lang] or [text])? I think that
question is more the heart of the problem here. Either direction seems
reasonable to me.

Thoughts?

I will
submit changes [1] related to this in fact i'm fixing couple of failing
test cases ATM. If you are planning to release 3.6.1 just to remove
deprecation and  deprecate RandomStringUtils back in Lang - 3.7 I'm fine
with that as well.

Hi,
since we’re getting more and more requests about the deprecation of
RandomStringUtils, I’m thinking about releasing the current state of
the
master branch as 3.6.1. I may have time to push an RC sometime this

week.
So if you have some fixes you want to include, please do so now.
Regards,
Benedikt
