Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MPIR-451:
--------------------------------------------
When I read "Maven Dependency Coordinates" I think coordinates of the
dependencies of this project. "Maven Coordinates" suggests to me the
coordinates of this project, which is what I want.
I have occasionally used Maven coordinates to locate an artifact in a context
where it is not a dependency.
> Rename "Dependency Information" to "Maven Coordinates".

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Priority: Major
>
> From a thread on commons-math where I noticed I was unable to find the Maven
> coordinates for the project on the project's website:
> The only way to get to that page is scroll about two thirds of the way down a
> sidebar and click one of the four links that mention "dependencies" that
> seems as likely to bring you to a list of commons-math's own dependencies
> rather than how to add this project as a dependency. I'm a Maven comitter
> who's spent way more time in the depths of Maven Project website generation
> than 99.9% of Java programmers and I still couldn't find this the first time
> I looked for it. That's de facto evidence that this information is not easy
> to find.
