I'm currently at ApacheCon working with Hiram and Clebert and I have learned that the HornetQ project is now considered a legacy project -- the code is no longer maintained as the open source project HornetQ. The expectation is to migrate the HornetQ user base to the ActiveMQ community. We (the ActiveMQ community) still need to draft a plan of action for steps to take with the HornetQ code donation, and I think that this could be one of the things that is identified in that plan to help merge the two communities. When combining communities in this manner, the goals of the merger cannot be achieved without some level of compromise and I see this is as a minor compromise. Therefore, I see no issue with providing backward compatibility because it is a minor level of effort and yet it helps to provide a migration path for users of HornetQ (the HornetQ community) to make use of ActiveMQ <codename>.
