Really? I don't mind if the current code is release as 2.0. But for such a minor change (though in the interface)? Please find my reasoning in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-11. Also I read the versioning guideline and can't see whether it really needs a major release (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/releases/versioning.html): "Generally speaking, an interface-compatible change will at most change the private interface of a component, or simply add classes, methods and attributes whose use is optional to both internal and external interface clients." "Developers must perform a major release whenever the new release is not at least interface-compatible the previous release." IMHO the condition is fulfilled, so the rule does not fire.
