-Codec was formed as an attempt to focus development effort on one
-definitive implementation of the Base64 encoder. At the time of Codec's
-proposal, there were approximately 34 different Java classes that dealt
-with Base64 encoding spread over the Foundation's CVS repository.
-Developers in the Jakarta Tomcat project had implemented an original
-version of the Base64 codec which had been copied by the Commons
-HttpClient and Apache XML project's XML-RPC subproject. After almost one
-year, the two forked versions of Base64 had significantly diverged from
-one another. XML-RPC had applied numerous fixes and patches which were
-not applied to the Commons HttpClient Base64. Different subprojects had
-differing implementations at various levels of compliance with the RFC
-2045.
-
-Out of that confusing duplication of effort sprang this simple attempt
-to encourage code reuse among various projects. While this package
-contains a abstract framework for the creation of encoders and decoders,
-Codec itself is primarily focused on providing functional utilities for
-working with common encodings.
