[A Note, not a vote :) ] 1. Clirr is generally considered obsolete, as it hadn't been worked on for about ten years. japicmp is a good replacement, especially for report generation, and is used in other commons projects.
2. Are the "changes" to the values in CharEncoding really necessary[1] (The deprecation surely is). Technically this is a potentially breaking binary incompatible change, as constant strings and primitives are inlined at compile time. [2] In this particular case, the results of load-time evaluation of the new initialization expressions are identical to the old constants, so it's behaviourally compatible; however, since this is the case, and since it's all deprecated anyway, why not leave the old values in-place? 3. JDK9 adds some extra parameters to the Deprecated annotation (most notably forRemoval=true, which is used to indicate that the annotated item is really really deprecated.) It's not needed in this case, but is worth thinking about when jdk9 is eventually released (latest schedule change : from 7/27/2017 to 9/21/2017).
