Hi, Over in avalon-land, we have a class which, I noticed, provides an exact superset of the functionality in jakarta-commons-sandbox/src/java/org/apache/commons/util/StreamUtils.java. http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/api/org/apache/avalon/excalibur/io/IOUtil.html Are people agreeable to move this over to Commons? --Jeff
