I haven't looked at all of the code under o.a.c.l.text, but it sounds like a 
good plan. We can start with a import of the package, and then refine and check 
if everything fits into [text], and if there are no other classes/methods in 
[lang] that depend on this package.


There are methods in StringUtils that could be implemented in [text] too. For 
example, the Levenshtein edit distance, and the Jaro Wrinkler similarity metric 
have been ported over as separate objects (which needs better modeling 
actually, see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEXT-21)

I think moving o.a.c.l.text and pruning StringUtils a little bit would be a 
great start for an initial release of [text], and simplify [lang] a little bit 
too.


Cheers
Bruno

Sorry for being very quite recently. You plan sounds awesome. I hope to
have some time to work on commons again in the next weeks. End of the year
is always busy :-)

Regards and keep up the good work,
Benedikt
