+INTRODUCTION:

+This document contains the release notes for the 3.1 version of Apache Commons Lang.
+Commons Lang is a set of utility functions and reusable components that should be of use in any 
+Java environment.
+
+Lang 3.0 and onwards now targets Java 5.0, making use of features that arrived with Java 5.0 such as generics, 
+variable arguments, autoboxing, concurrency and formatted output.
