Again, I agree with Jörg on this one. The migration effort is minimal if the code really just moves to different packages (and is binary incompatible). As he says here, you just find/replace and then do your "fixes" to get things working again (which you would have to do anyway if they were left where they were). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
