Description

David Jencks suggested that we move org.apache.geronmio.security.jaas.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule to org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers package. I intend to do the following.
1. svn copy org.apache.geronmio.security.jaas.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule to org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule
2. Make org.apache.geronmio.security.jaas.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule extend org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule.
3. Mark org.apache.geronmio.security.jaas.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule as deprecated.
4. Change all references from org.apache.geronmio.security.jaas.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule to org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.NamedUPCredentailLoginModule

Does anyone see this coming in the way of compatibility? I do not intend to change the option name "org.apache.geronimo.jaas.NamedUPCredentialLoginModule.Name" as this will surely break compatibility. Whether or not the move breaks compatibility, should we consider this move only in trunk and not in branches\2.0?
