I don't think we should submit these patches. Instead I would like to
nominate Tim O'Brien as a Jakarta Commons commiter.

He has been supplying patches to the Codec project for the last 4 months
[at least], has refactored much of the existing Codec code and is the
one involved with Codec with the best vision for Codec's future.

There has been increasing interest in the Codec project over the last few
months, and it needs someone to be focusing on it. Tim has been
contributing to the Apache community's mail lists for a while now and I
believe is ready.

[best i can get the mailing list to spew out is:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?a=103738082600002&r=1&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?a=103763510400004&r=1&w=2
