Ted Dunning commented on MAHOUT-1187:
-------------------------------------

One parting shot here.

I just took a look and it appears that there are three uses for lang3 in Mahout

a) as a way of getting atomic primitive types.  I think AtomicBoolean and 
friends are better here.

b) in a massive append/StringUtils.rightPad expression that should be replaced 
with a String.printf

c) in ArrayUtil expressions that could likely be replaced by either guava or 
standard Java.

So actually dropping the dependency is viable.
