Since the old 2.0 branch is so... "sleepy" and I've not seen Simone here in
a long time, I'd rather keep the train moving as it is and if someone
really wants a breaking BC release, maybe that would be for a 3.0... or is
this simple a case of changing BU APIs from returning [collections]
concrete classes and/or interfaces instead of JRE interfaces?
