If the package name is changed to o.a.commons, the Commons versioning
guidelines require a major version bump.
Probably a good idea anyway to release as 1.0 to show that the
incubation stage is finally over.

The package name change means there's no need to keep binary
compatibility - users will have to edit and recompile anyway.
But ideally fix all broken bits of the API at once to avoid having to
change the package name again in the future.
