Before voting please consider that this will break a

Do we want to keep org.xwiki.bridge.DocumentName (and all the others
too) and deprecate them?
IMO it depends if we agree that 2.2 will introduce the new model or
not.
WDYT?
Note that I have now finished the refactoring locally and I'm waiting
for a decision. FYI there are 93 files impacted but most are tests or
files which don't expose APIs. In term of APIs there are probably
something like 20 methods whose signature have changed (mostly from
org.xwiki.bridge.DocumentName to org.xwiki.model.DocumentName).
For developers it means replace "bridge" by "model" in imports. This
is not a big change but it means they need to re-release whatever
"extensions" they have done (if they used the bridge) when they move
to XE 2.2.
Personally I don't see any way of moving forward for the new model
without breaking some backward compat and the bridge was always
flagged as being temporary so I'm +1 to go ahead. I'd also like to
continue working on the model in the 2.2 timeframe to ensure that what
we release for 2.2 final will be stable (for example by introducing
the WikiResourceName discussed in the other mail thread on the new
model).
Thanks

Hi,
New proposal:
Create a new xwiki-model and move "clean" classes from xwiki-bridge
into it. These are:
- *AttachmentName*
- *DocumentName*
Here's my +1
Thanks
