I think that you should be able to set the component name to the old
class name, just to be safe in case someone is using configuration for
these components.

Renaming of OSGi service having only private properties (no metatype)

[Konrad Windszus]

Are there any versioning policies for renaming an OSGi service implementation 
class which does not have any public properties (i.e. no metatype resource)?
In this case I would like to rename the classes below 
https://github.com/apache/sling/tree/trunk/contrib/extensions/resourcemerger/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/resourcemerger/impl/picker.
Can I just do that given that there is only a very slight chance that those 
properties have been overwritten by someone?
Thanks,
Konrad
