[rap-dev] Question about dependency notifications

[Austin Riddle <austin.riddle@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have just completed bug 305278, which adds a dependency in 
rwt.visualization.google on the org.json bundle from Orbit that I 
recently committed.

I was going to add it as a package dependency, but I had to override 
some behavior that is tied to the current org.json version in Orbit.

But in either case, a question arises as to how to notify consumers that 
they should obtain the Orbit bundle for their convenience (obviously 
they could fulfill the dependency themselves, but I don't want them to 
guess about how to make the visualizations work).

Once I commit, their local copies will not compile if they update their 
code. So how can we tell them and/or document for new consumers...."Go 
get the org.json bundle from Orbit and include it in your target 
platform and/or run configuration."? 

The incubator webpage?
A README in the bundle?

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
