It shouldn't be disruptive at all if the artifacts are properly
"relocated" in the Maven repo.


Does that mean that you will be able to use
commons-digester:commons-digester:1.8 *or*
org.apache.commons:commons-digester:1.8 after Digester 1.8 is released?

For a specific example, consider an app that uses, say, Shale and MyFaces
1.1.4.  Even if we update the Shale dependency to the new groupId, an
application will still inherit a transitive dependency on the old version
until a new MyFaces release with an updated dependency.

Does the "relocation" take care of this?
