	Change	Effect
1	Field expanded of type UICollapsiblePanel.Properties has been removed from this class.	A client program may be interrupted by NoSuchFieldError exception.

[+] affected methods (2)

	Change	Effect
1	Superclass has been changed from javax.faces.render.Renderer to RendererBase.	1) Access of a client program to the fields or methods of the old super-class may be interrupted by NoSuchFieldError or NoSuchMethodError exceptions. 2) A static field from a super-interface of a client class may hide a field (with the same name) inherited from new super-class and cause IncompatibleClassChangeError exception.

[+] affected methods (7)

	Change	Effect
1	Abstract method publish ( java.lang.Object, java.lang.String ) has been added to this interface.	A client program may be interrupted by AbstractMethodError exception. Added abstract method is called in 2nd library version by the method publish ( TopicKey, java.lang.Object ) and may not be implemented by old clients.
