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

I think that's a good idea. Do you have some existing code you would like to contribute?

> Java is sorely lacking in a good quality open source APi for translating standard IP netmasks, e.g.
> 10.1.0.0/16 
> 83.217.112.18/255.255.255.240
> 10.1.0.*
> etc etc
> These sorts of masks are commonly used in the likes of Apache web server, and I would really like to use them in java.  A utlity to translate them into sequences of InetAddress objects would be perfect.
> Commons-Net would seem like a good project to put them in.
> Thoughts?
