Heya,

Doing some house cleaning (mainly removing over-engineered concepts that are really not needed...) in elasticsearch, and there will be a breaking change for people using hte Java API and the Query DSL. Basically, all the query builders moved one step up the package. Should be a simple change to move to use it (just remove the xcontent package), but sorry about that.
