> commons-geometry currently contains a [DoubleFormats|https://github.com/apache/commons-geometry/blob/master/commons-geometry-io-core/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/geometry/io/core/utils/DoubleFormats.java] utility class in the {{commons-geometry-io-core}} module that produces standardized string representations of doubles for use in text-based data formats. It has the following features:
> - It is completely thread-safe.
> - It produces string in scientific, engineering, plain, or mixed (plain or scientific depending on value) formats.
> - Performance is comparable to {{DecimalFormat}} and {{BigDecimal}}.
> As mentioned on the dev mailing list, I believe that this class has broader applicability than just geometric data formats and would be a good fit for commons-text.
