Since this morning, we're experiencing a validation error in our Spring application context files with the
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/jpa namespace
located at
http://www.springframework.org/schem...ng-jpa-1.0.xsd

The issue is in the underlying imported namespace
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/repository
located at
http://www.springframework.org/schem...repository.xsd
as it no longer includes the repository complex type.
We assume spring-repository.xsd was recently updated (?) and the url is late bound.

Our current workaround is to explicitly point to version 1.0 (where repository is properly defined) in the application context xsi:schemaLocation by adding
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/repository http://www.springframework.org/schem...sitory-1.0.xsd

It is unfortunate that Spring does not version namespace in sync with schema changes.

Comments/suggestions appreciated.
