that is all very well but it makes it tough for external
contributions (e.g. hopefully JENA-2169) that go anywhere near the
changed files. I've been resolving conflicts but it is fiddly and
error prone.
Is it Jena5?
There isn't an intention to be that scale and I hope the majority of
users are not affected; maybe some deprecations appear. Fuseki users
aren't impacted.
Downstream systems digging into the internals of Jena will be more
impacted where very old code has been updated, but whether they would
test before a release is, as we know, quite unlikely.
