In maven 2 speak is that a scope of "provided"? I can add that to the
Chain project.xml which would be good if there are any future Chain
releases - whether the existing 1.1 pom can be corrected after the
event I guess you'll know better than me.

Provided means you expect it to be provided at runtime, like
servlet-api for a Struts app, which is provided by the Servlet
container.  For Chain, I think both of those are truly optional.  You
only need them if you're using the JSF or Portlet related parts of
commons-chain.  I think it should be <optional>true</optional> inside
<properties> for m1.

The Maven devs are resistant to changing released poms.  For a while
they were doing it but it seemed to cause more problems than it
solved.

Thanks in advance for fixing the Chain project.xml file. :)
