Hello Hen: I've encountered a backwards compatibility issue in our application unit test suite related to [CLI-162].
With version 1.1, I can print call HelpFormatter#printHelp(String,Options) without any problems without our options. When I replace 1.1 with 1.2 I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Text too long for line - throwing exception to avoid infinite loop [CLI-162]: Since the only thing that I changed is the CLI version, I assume that this means that the HelpFormatter format changed between 1.1 and 1.2. Is that so? I worked around this by calling the HelpFormatter API with a width large enough to avoid the RE. Sadly this makes CLI 1.2 not 100% binary compatible with 1.1. Before I go any further and extract my code into a JIRA ticket, is this a showstopper? If not, there's plenty of work I need to do before I spin my wheels on extracting the code.

I've added a note to the release page to check the NOTICE file's copyright year. There should be no difference between the two other than the RC1->RC2 in the pom and the updated year in the NOTICE file.
