[jira] [Commented] (CODEC-239) Allows "look-alike" characters like 0 (digit zero) and 1 (digit one) as aliases for O (uppercase oh) and I (uppercase eye) respectively when decoding

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-239?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16177900#comment-16177900 ]

------------------------------------

Hi [~chris@christopherschultz.net]:

Would you please redo your patch on top of trunk? It no longer applies now that I've applies your patch for lower case Base 32. 

Now is the time to pound on the trunk version of the code and propose fixes. It's been too long since we've had a release. I'd like to have one soon.

Thank you!
Gary

> Allowing {{1}} -> {{I}} and {{0}} -> {{O}} can help usability, especially for human users who are entering data expected to be in base32-encoded format.
