I'd like to have https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1420 included in the upcoming release.
There were few opinions about using SVG graphics, so I'm not sure whether the proposals could just simply be merged. It would be nice to refresh the site for the 10th anniversary of graduation from the incubator, though. Finally, there is a contentious issue of API change regarding the use of generics. Arrays of generics is a no-no in Java [1]. Thus, the method in question should be deprecated. IMHO, the suggested mitigation by providing a default implementation of the new method in terms of the old one in the abstract class is sufficient for the use cases found in the wild.
