Hi,

I've just saw Revision: a1ebd775d663 "remove escapers from Guava (won't make it for Guava 12)" - what's the reason for that?

As I understand it, the HTML-specific escapers in particular have some very complicated problems, and we are not really HTML domain experts.

It's a whole lot more complicated than that. We need to put a lot more work into them. :-(

That's a pity, I'd really like to have escapers in guava because they are one of few apache commons lang dependencies in my project... Hope it'll be included in r13, after all guava-jdk6-r12 is a lot of work to do.
