There's no need to update both the groupId and tthe artifactId.
So long as the each unique package name relates to a unique
groupId:artifactId pair, Maven should be able to resolve dependencies
correctly.

However it is easier to keep the artifactId in step with the package name.

Changing package name causes lots of work for downstream users.

So are you sure that:
- compatibilty has to be broken in order to support the changes that
have been made?
- there aren't any other pending API changes that would require
another package rename for the next release?
