[Commons Convert]

[Adrian Gonzalez <ad...@yahoo.fr>]

Sorry,

I've just seen the Commons Convert project. Perhaps,
this question has already been asked (sorry), but I
can't access the archived mailing list link [1]
broken.

The library named Dozer [2] is doing the same as
Commons Convert.
Why don't you join forces, or otherwise why do you
begin a new library for the same purpose (perhaps it's
not the same and so perhaps I didn't understood) ?

Yep, it's all pretty much the same aim.  Currently
however I am working on/with yet ANOTHER library,
Morph, which is, with apologies to the Dozer guys (I
am a defector from their camp since discovering
Morph), much better-designed and has a pretty cool
(larger) scope/feature set.  And it's only getting
better.  I actually hadn't looked too deeply at
commons-convert before, but now that I do I see that
Matt Sgarlata is listed as a contributor.  Matt S is
the primary architect and project leader of Morph. 
>From my perspective, any resurrection of
commons-convert should take the form of incubating the
Morph codebase.  :)
