Maybe ;) But for completely selfish reasons I would also like to see it at commons (in addition to if necessary). The reason being that we could then start importing code into Apache Commons now - right away. If we get the structure wrong we can then change it by just moving files - without harming our users, without loosing history and without any ugly CVS hacks. -- Cheers, Peter Donald *------------------------------------------------* | You can't wake a person who is pretending | | to be asleep. -Navajo Proverb. | *------------------------------------------------*
