Hi Aaron, This is the right list, and your suggestion makes good sense.
Beanutils is a fairly quiet project (though not dead). There are a couple of people who work on it regularly, and I'm sure there will be an answer from them. I'm a little surprised they haven't responded already, but perhaps they are on holiday or busy on an urgent work project, or similar. Contacting the email list first is good practice. However as there has been no response, I suggest creating an enhancement entry in the commons JIRA issue-tracker. Then ping this list with a reminder every couple of days. If none of the regular beanutils maintainers respond within a week or so, then I am sure someone (maybe me) will review and commit your patch.
