ByteArrays.java
I have a class I'm about to add to Lang which turns byte[] into
hexadecimal String and viceversa. It builds on simple java.lang stuff, so
I've always placed it in lang, but as I was committing I realised it could
be viewed as a codec.
Any views on whether it's central enough to be lang, or should go in
codec?

Definitely codec (regardless of whether it's merged with HexDump).

So ByteArrays and HexDump could move together, or do you see them as independent?

They are pretty similar I think.
HexDump seems to do more than just convert a byte[] to a String, but that
could just be me not taking the time to delve into the bit-shifting going
on, and not being the type of coder who uses bit-shifting a lot. It's tied
to an OutputStream, and it doesn't take an InputStream to a byte[].

How is this different from the HexDump class that was in util (I think it is in codec now)?
