The problem is that this upstream has a lot of projects. "Spring 
Framework" is just one of them. Another is "Spring Security", "Spring 
Retry", "Spring Batch", ... [1]. On the other hand, all the projects 
have "springframework" in their groupId (e.g.: 
"org.springframework.security").
I just recently added package "spring-retry" to Fedora, but I agree that 
we should find some consensus. I am OK with renaming it to 
"springframework-retry", if that's what we want.
