A new component just for this? Uhg. I'd rather find it a home in one of our current components. A new component in this case seems like an orphan in waiting. If we really want a new component instead of Lang or Codec, I could see a Text component which would get land's text package as well...
But a new component would be my last choice.

What about creating a commons-string-metric component (or any better name)? Wikipedia has a list of about 20 string metrics algorithm, the field looks broad enough to deserve a dedicated component. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_metric Emmanuel Bourg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
