I hate reinventing the wheel. It's a waste of time. I'd rather use someone else's wheel invention.When programming, I'd rather do some research and find existing code that does what I want - instead of writing my own code. The less code I write, the less code I have to maintain.OFBiz does a pretty good job of building on existing code libraries. But every once in a while, we end up writing code that already exists elsewhere. As an example, I recently removed a utility method that duplicated a method that already existed in the Apache Commons library.So, I'm sending this out to the developer community as a reminder: Before you create a new method or class or framework, take some time to see if it already exists somewhere.-Adrian
