Christopher Schultz commented on CODEC-234:
-------------------------------------------

Bump. It's a small patch, can someone take a look?

> Base32.decode should support lowercase letters

>             Project: Commons Codec
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.10
>            Reporter: Christopher Schultz

> Base32.decode accepts a String input, but any lowercase characters are 
> ignored -- e.g. Base32.decode("abcd2345") will give a different result than 
> Base32.decode("ABCD1234") with no errors and a surprise to a developer.
> Accepting any case is desirable, as RFC 4648 makes it clear that 
> case-insensitivity is a goal for Base32 encoding.
