Hi Jochen!!!
thanks for your interest, I can reply to all of your questions: new
Digester APIs have been created branching the old ones, polishing
them, removed @Deprecated methods, and rewritten Annotations/XMLRules
internals, in order to be a natural extension of the new Rules binder.
SO:

not totally - basic Digester APIs have been preserved, but extensions
are totally different, even if they process same inputs - that's why I
opted for changing java package name (org.apache.commons.digester3)
and Maven groupId (org.apache.commons) and artifactId
(commons-digester3)

I produced a clirr report[1] included in the site on sandbox,
repackaging new code to old package (via the jarjar-plugin, in a
separate dir) and compared with commons-digester:commons-digester:2.1
to have a whole vision about what has changed

yes :P
Thanks to you, have a nice day!!!
