I think it would be smart to change from org.jsecurity.* to org.apache.ki.* only immediately before our first Apache release. This allows our existing user community to avoid changing source code dependencies until absolutely
necessary.

I'm recommending this because there are a few people that regularly build snapshots for trunk for integration testing (Grails plugin, et. al), and I'd
like to avoid any headache for them until absolutely required.

Would this be ok?  Any objections?  What does everyone think?

I'm inclined to think that changing the package names will result in a great deal of breakage all over the place and doing it as soon as possible is more likely to result in a working first release.

I'm not sure if you are using maven style artifact ids.... I hope so... but these will be changing too at the same time so at least with maven built projects people will still be getting the old package named jars until they explicitly upgrade.
