Suggestion: keep same API in old location (@deprecate'd) but for new 
location delete all of the is* methods and just make it implement 
Comparable/*<DeweyDecimal>*/. And the class should be final.

BTW I think you forgot to set the new DeweyDecimal.java to be text in 
SVN. Checks out as CRNL on my Linux machine.

Why would this be more beneficial than just having a stub that  
delegates any real work to the newly packaged version?  I'm not sure  
what the benefit would be to have (almost) 2 copies of the same  
code?  I can see that for documentation reasons, using @deprecated  
would help

Damn!  Sorry was using a temporary machine (WindowsXP) and forgot to  
set up svn:eol native - I'll try to fix today.
