Dennis, can you comment on how much pain (and what steps) were involved in the package rename you performed? What difficulty level would be involved in moving the historical com.sun.jini packages into an org.apache.river.impl namespace? Can this be done with a suitable sed/ask script and moving the files in SVN?
