I guess that the above policy just was not in place at that time. > Using commons-jcs2 says that it is not compatible with whatever came before > it. > > Using commons-jcs2 follows the convention currently established with the > pattern commons-math3, commons-lang4, and commons-collection4. Yes it's > true that we did not have a commons-jcs but that is besides the point (IMO). Why is that besides the point? There has never been a commons-jcs release as of yet. There used to be (Jakarta-)JCS with completely different maven coordinates. Calling it commons-jcs already says that it is not compatible with anything else. The convention has been established to avoid class loader issues. We don't have that problem here.
