Hi Robert, If the question is whether or not to host/develop such stuff here in the commons project, I would think it unlikely.
As Henri noted, most of these libs would need to be significantly rewritten, rather than just "translated". And I expect that there is not a lot of c# knowledge (or interest) here, so a completely new set of developers would be needed to maintain the code. Using this code as a starting point seems sensible, and I'm sure people here would be happy to answer any questions that come up during this work. However I doubt that commons.apache.org would be an appropriate place to host the code.
