The declarative cache makes working with the cache and defining unique object ids easier. We also want to include helpers to handle with common cases like pagination, garbage collection and eviction. Follow #2331 for a high level overview. The current focus is on cache control and expiration. You can read more in the cache control design document.
release-2.x is the Apollo Android 2.x branch. Major security issues or fixes will get new releases.
