--------------------------------------------------------------
I agree here with Elliotte, those projects (commons, plexus-utils,
maven-shared-utils) share common roots, have code copy pasted from each to
other... IMHO, maven-shared-utils
[https://github.com/apache/maven-shared-utils] should simply die off,
plexus-utils should deprecate all methods that are present in other commons
project, and at one point just drop them. This last step was on-hold almost
forever, as maven was injecting "currently used" plexus-utils into plugins,
which is not the case anymore, since 3.9 all plugins MUST declare and use their
own explicit plexus-utils version, so the danger of incompatibility is gone.
