    https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pull/122
  
    >> Breaking changes should be in a 3.6 version.
    
    Sounds OK to me.
    
    >> We need to either create a new issue or have a different pull request 
for 3.5 under this same issue
    
    I think this pull request (122) should target branch 3.5, because it keeps 
the old API. We need create a new PR that target master which only contain 
updates to the API name (reconfig -> reconfigure) and some doc / test updates 
without bringing back the old APIs.
    
    @Randgalt Could you update the base branch of this PR to be branch-3.5 
instead of master? I think this PR is ready to land in branch-3.5.
    
    @fpj I can create a new PR target master that only contain API name 
changes, if @Randgalt does not get ahead of me on this work.

> ZOOKEEPER-2014 moved the reconfig() methods into a new class, ZooKeeperAdmin. 
> It appears this was done to document that these are methods have access 
> restrictions. However, this change breaks Apache Curator (and possibly other 
> clients). Curator APIs will have to be changed and/or special methods need to 
> be added. A breaking change of this kind should only be done when the benefit 
> is overwhelming. In this case, the same information can be conveyed with 
> documentation and possibly a deprecation notice.
> Revert the creation of the ZooKeeperAdmin class and move the reconfig() 
> methods back to the ZooKeeper class with additional documentation.
