---------------------------------------

> Affects Versions: 1.3, 1.2, 1.1, 1.0, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3
> Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux

>
> Apache SIS has a many packages for SIS internal usage. Users should not use
> the classes in those package, because they may change in any SIS version
> without notice. Prior to SIS 1.4, those packages were identified by naming
> conventions. Anything starting with {{org.apache.sis.internal.}} is excluded
> from Javadoc and should be ignored by users. However this convention is
> unconvenient for SIS developers, because the `internal` part in package name
> cause related package to appear far from each other. As SIS become bigger,
> the internal packages became more and more confusion.
> Since JPMS modularisation, the {{internal}} naming convention is no longer
> needed. Instead the {{module-info.java}} file declare explicitly which
> packages are exported, and packages not in this list are invisible to users.
> Consequently we can rename the internal packages to something much closer to
> where they are used.
