Could you please elaborate more about "dependency"? I can imagine the following use cases: 1. the project hardly depends on mysql-connector, w/o mysql-connector, the project can not work totally. 2. some optional functionalities of the project require mysql-connector, w/o mysql-connector, the project still works. 3. the project use mysql-connector for testing-only purpose, mysql-connector is not required in runtime at all, e.g. the project implements MySQL transport protocol, it uses mysql-connector for testing to ensure compatibility. Are the above use cases allowed/forbidden by the apache project?
