Sebb commented on IO-167:
-------------------------
It looks odd that the patch for convertCase() upcases and then downcases the
characters.
Might be an idea to add a comment to the patch explaining that this is
necessary to agree with String.equalsIgnoreCase().
I agree that that FileSystemUtils needs to use Locale.ENGLISH for OS name
comparisons.
As to whether wildcardMatch() should be platform-dependent or independent,
there are probably use-cases for both.
But whatever is decided - maybe have two versions? - the Javadoc needs to make
it clear (and it needs to work in Turkey!)
