Difference between ical4j libraries org.mnode.ical4j and net.fortuna.ical4j

Question

We are using ical4j through maven. While browsing mvnrepository, I came across org.mnode.ical4j as the most used ical4j library in the Maven Central Repository, and it has the latest versions. Though there is also net.fortuna.ical4j, from a 3rd party repository.

Now I'm confused, since the ical4j web sources and its package structure are suggesting net.fortuna.ical4j. Which one should I use, and what is the difference between artifacts org.mnode.ical4j and net.fortuna.ical4j ?

Answer 1

net.fortuna.ical4j

Initial releases of ical4j used this name, however as I don't own the domain fortuna.net it was difficult to release via maven central

org.mnode.ical4j

Latest releases use this name, as I control the domain mnode.org
