Randall Hauch resolved DNA-101.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

The current design works very well, and (as mentioned) is intentionally similar to the JCR model.  This, coupled with the fact that a client will not see this while using the JCR API, means that we don't need or want to change the current design.

> The new org.jboss.dna.spi.graph.ValueFactory and package org.jboss.dna.spi.graph.ValueFormatException interfaces may be potentially confusing to users that are using both DNA and the underlying JCR APIs in the same code.  This is because there are interfaces with exactly the same names, and with very similar purposes (the JCR interfaces deal with instances of the javax.jcr.Value class, where the DNA interfaces are for standard Java objects), in the javax.jcr package.  We should think about changing the names of the DNA interfaces to avoid such potential confusion.  This is a very minor issue, I would not object if we decided to leave the interface names unchanged.
