I really just want to gracefully migration from v1 syntax to v2. (In
reality it's more of v1 to v1.1, where one or two things cause some
incompatibility), i.e. getting parent community list or something is named
slightly differently, and/or to get subcollections you would need to call
another endpoint to get the data: /communities/:id/collections
I'm thinking the same /rest webapp could include both v1 and v2 routes,
just put them into another package, and annotate the routes. It's just this
is extra effort, it adds to the maintenance burden, it causes the api to be
less simple, and I'm just planning to deprecate/remove the v1 stuff, and
make v2 the new default. So, just a crutch so that you don't break your
rest consumer apps. Which is why I'm wondering if this is even necessary.
