Forwarding from jackrabbit-dev. As the Oak list is probably the right 
place to discuss this.

Hello,

the migration code requires access to the checkpoint metadata: the 
creation and expiry timestamps. They can be read by accessing the 
checkpoints root node (using the method mentioned in the subject). 
However, the method is package-scoped. Can we make it public, so the 
other modules can use it as well?

Alternatively, we may introduce some general way to read that data for 
all NodeStore implementations. Maybe some extra properties in the 
checkpoint properties?

Regards,
Tomek
