> As a basic secure functionality it must be in core Java library or better even as a method of `String`. Security functions are "batteries" that must be included. Almost all projects that I saw had commons-lang as a dependency but the commons-text I can't even remember. There is no point arguing here what belongs in what JRE class ;-) We have been moving text based code to Commons Text for some time now while deprecating the original code in Commons Lang. Therefore, I don't see us adding more text based utilities to Lang. Masking is definitely a text concept IMO, as opposed to java.lang level processing. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
