Re: [rt-pmc] Google Visualization API Dependency

I was about to respond with a similar response as Jesse. This appears more of a works with relationship but perhaps it is thought of more as a pre-req because the contributed code cannot function properly without the Google API available remotely?

I think we talked about something like this a month or so back on one
of the rt-pmc calls..

looking through the url and the cq, it seems like this is more of a
work's with as opposed to an actual dependency that would be either
pulled in or checked into eclipse svn or orbit, right?

If I remember right from that discussion this is akin to just
developing against something like a web service that you are writing
(or donating in this case I think) all of the glue that would exist on
the eclipse side...

so it ought to fall under the same category as a project making a
'works with' dependency/declaration on oracle jdbc drivers, regardless
of the ??fact?? that there is no other provider of that api (which is
where I think the primary point of confusion would lay.

in my book that is fine, not sure if others have different feedback on it :)

cheers,
jesse
