My intent was not asking the maven developers to open CQs (that's on the side
of the eclipse committers), but to depend on versions that are already
approved.

For instance, there is a version of google collections approved which is
different than the one used by the embedder.

If the embedder could depend on these approved versions, it would make
things easier later.

I can track those versions down and provide patches to the specific
components, but only if there is interest in this.


What will happen is that when we get close to a beta, many of the dependencies will boil out, and once things are thoroughly tested we'll have the versions we need. I have no problems making CQs for the dependencies are needed. I don't really consider this extra work as the dependencies we test with through the cycle will be the versions that need to be approved. The dependencies are still going to change quite a bit between now and the first beta. I have a tool to automate the submission of CQs so this is not going to be a burden for me.

I'll be taking care of all the CQs as we approach a beta. They will
change until then and I'm not going to expend any effort until 3.x is
more stable.

Hello!

Eclipse IAM will start integrating the alpha builds (the goal is
adapt to
the changes as they come along).

The first step for that is getting IP clearance from Eclipse, so we
have
submitted most of the alpha-2 dependencies quite successfully.

However, we have been asked if it would be possible to replace a few
of them
with versions that have been already approved by the Eclipse legal
team.

Since m2e is also an Eclipse project, I think that it could be
interesting
to align the dependencies (when that's possible).

Let me know if that is interesting and I'll get back to you with the
details.

Yours,
Abel Muiño, Eclipse IAM project lead.

and sit softly on your shoulder ...
