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:
> Is the new branch expected > to be binary upwards compatible or not? 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) > If it is: Is there a clirr report or something similar? 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 > If it is not: Does it change Java package name and Maven groupId > and/or artifactId? yes :P Thanks to you, have a nice day!!!
