Hi, today I wake up finding Geoserver trunk did not compile due to a change in referencing factory finder class name.
Now, I like the name change, as I despise having multiple classes with the same name in the same code base, but at the same time, that class was around since 2.0, so straight renaming it it's a compatibility break. Shouldn't we use the trick of renaming the class, then creating an empty subclass with the old name, and marking it as deprecate for a release cycle? (btw, refactoring the name was a good idea, since that way the codebase does not use the old version). On the bright side, the compatibility break made me update the Geoserver code base, I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.
