-TODO:
-==============
-
-- Consider using Apache Commons Exec to replace SystemCommand?
-
-- Allows to specify a velocity-tools.properties or equivalent in classpath
- root (e.g. classes/ folder) to define custom classes/tools to be used
- by Velocity.
-
-- Upgrade to Commons Configuration 2.x
-- Upgrade to Apache Velocity 2.x when available in Maven.
-
- - See after upgrading above two if we can get rid of
- Commons Collections 3.x and Commons Lang 2.x
-
-- Upgrade to slf4j.
-
-- Modify Jar copier to handle cases where snapshot are timestamped instead and
- not being considered the latest when they should. Like:
- norconex-commons-lang-1.13.0-20170328.184247-17.jar vs
- norconex-commons-lang-1.13.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
- https://github.com/Norconex/collector-http/issues/331#issuecomment-290196986
-
-- Redo DurationUtil to be more flexible (using fluid builder approach.
- or check Apache or Java 8 equivalent classes if they can be made as flexible.
- Look at:
- https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/javadocs/api-3.5/index.html?org/apache/commons/lang3/time/DurationFormatUtils.html
- http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/format/DateTimeFormatterBuilder.html
