I gave that a try today.  I had to omit several missing dependencies (e.g.,
commons-dbcp2, commons-pool2, hsqldb).  Then there was an incompatibility with
modern versions of javax.servlet that I had to patch around.  Then the test
code refers to jakarta.mail instead of javax.mail, requiring another patch. 
Then I found that the Fedora apache-commons-logging package disables log4j
support, and the commons-configuration tests assume EVERYWHERE that log4j
support is available via commons-logging.  At this point I am giving up.

Considering the length of time that has passed, and the fact that nobody has
requested the return of commons-configuration version 1, I think I would like
to stick with the current naming.  If version 3 is ever released, my preference
would be to introduce apache-commons-configuration2 to hold version 2 (if
needed), and have apache-commons-configuration move on to version 3.
