  ===================================================================
  Jakarta Commons Codec  
  *** Release Plan
  
  This document outline the current goals for the next release.  
  This document defines objectives and action items that should
  be met before the next release.  Longer term goals should be
  placed in the file named ROADMAP.  
  
  Objective: 
  
     The main objective of 1.1 release is to package a definitive
     implementation of Base64 and Hex in addition to the phonetic
     encoders currently implemented in the "language" package. It
     is the objective of the [codec] project to provide a point
     of consolidation for [binary|text|language] codecs.
  
     The 1.1 release will be a foundation for further expansion
     of the available binary encoders and decoders, but it should
     be noted that the objective is to provide an implementation
     of Base64 and Hex - byte[] and IO stream.
