Hi guys,

I found out I'm using quite a lot of the commons-*:commons-* artifacts in
my project so I decided to upgrade them to their new version in
org.apache.commons:whatever. I only upgraded those that I could so now I
have for instance org.apache.commons:commons-lang3 in my classpath, but
unfortunately I also have commons-confguration:commons-configuration:1.9
and there I get exceptions like these:

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/commons/configuration/ConfigurationException
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method)
        at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Class.java:2521)

org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultSingletonBeanRegistry.getSingleton(DefaultSingletonBeanRegistry.java:228)


So because commons-configuration:commons-configuration requires
commons-lang2 as a dependency I'm forced to downgrade to commons-lang2.

My request is this: is it possible to upgrade ALL the commons artifacts to
the correct repository groupId (org.apache.commons) and upgrade their
dependencies? Most of them are already there, and those which are not will
most certainly benefit from a new release (i guess there's been quite a
while they haven't been released and there might be some resolved issues in
the JIRA).

Is there anyone against having a new release on: commons-logging,
commons-fileupload, commons-codec,
commons-configuration,commons-beanutils,commons-digester and the rest of
the projects which are still using the incorrect groupId.
