There are a huge array of changes since 2.5 - completely different rule
format, the internals have been rewritten (more complete RETE
implementation, etc), IDE support, and so on.  And assuming you see all or
most of these as improvements, you could argue that Drools 2.5 isn't as good
a rule engine.

That said, if it does the job for you, it's a viable choice -- we still have
projects using 2.5, and it's not posing a problem for us.
