Building a Library of Common Utilities

[MatthewC529]

So the time has come for me to consider building a library. I was finally set free from a recent project and finally able to turn my eyes towards implementing a feature set in Java 7 for Robotics Programming.

Now I have an idea of what I want to do, and I want to Open Source it (I know it's required, but I really want to anyway) and leave it open to modification but I would like some input as to what teams view as key features. I usually use IterativeBot so that's where my mind goes but I want to make it flexible, applicable to CommandBased and even Simple as well. What do you, as a programmer or engineer or mentor think needs to be in a set of utilities for future programmers on a given team.

I am basically looking for ideas on what features to implement in a library to be used in conjunction with WPILib. I know WPILib already has soooo many features, but is there anything you wished it had, or that you see yourself using often and have already made it a small utility?

Thanks for any responses!
