Jukka Zitting commented on JCR-87:
----------------------------------

Is there some added benefit in upgrading? AFAIK you should be able to just 
replace the commons-collections 2.1 jar with a newer jar in the classpath if 
you want to use newer features (commons-collections should mostly be backwards 
compatible).

As long as Jackrabbit only specifies the build dependencies and not the runtime 
dependencies, I see this issue as a "don't break it if it works" case. :-)

But if you think that upgrading the dependency and possibly using the 
refactored classes would be beneficial also to the Jackrabbit internals, then I 
see no problem in accepting the change.
