I agree about NOT making non-final jars available on ibiblio (httpclient beeing an exception) So could the next RC be uploaded to http://cvs.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository/ ?

Please also consider using the new groupId recommandation for apache commons-X : org.apache.commons.X

should we make this change for the whole of the commons?

I think we should do it, but I remember that Henri had some reservations when this was discussed last time. It had something to do with the local Apache repo and where Jakarta artifact should be in that repo. Perhaps he can fill us in on that situation.

If it is decided that this should be done I volunteer to help out with the move.

how much hassle would this change be for downstream consumers?

Not much. When a downstream consumer wants to upgrade a Jakarta Commons dependency they will have to change groupId as well as version, instead of just the version.

This move has already been made for several other (Apache) jars and is the "right way" to go. Have a look at
  http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/
to see the current status.
