mike - also to clarify based on what you brought up I updated the JIRA
description as follows

The following also would be true:
1) Apache NiFi 1.0.0 repositories should work just fine when applied
to an Apache NiFi 1.1.0 installation.

2) Repositories made/updated in Apache NiFi 1.1.0 onward would not
work in older Apache NiFi releases (such as 1.0.0)
