Hi Rob, Looking at frequency I think more number of requests coming for RandomStringUtils for its simplicity.
RandomStringGenerator is strong , flexible but one can't use it quickly. Also I think this tool should belong in Commons text's arsenal. I'm not only moving RandomStringUtils to text but changing its core logic with using RandomStringGenerator which seems fair to me. So finally we should release text-1.2 rather doing rollback of deprecation and release lang 3.6.1, WDYT ?
