Re: [technology-pmc] Advice on how to request pre-req dependency for the Maven Embedder

Hello PMC,
The IAM (http://www.eclipse.org/iam) team would like to request pmc
approval and guidance for declaring a pre-req dependency on the maven
embedder.
The maven embedder is a set of libraries that allow the use of maven
from a host application (in this case, IAM).
The maven embedder is still under development (i.e. not released) so we
are asking for a pre-req dependency to be able to use snapshots of
current development. Our goal will be to process CQs for the embedder
components once they reach the beta or release status, as adviced by the
IP team.
The maven embedder is part of maven 3.0 and developed at the apache
foundation. Its dependencies are either ASL or MIT licensed.
The packaging of the embedder components as an eclipse bundle (and
feature) is currently done on a non-eclipse project at googlecode
(http://q4e.googlecode.com). Another packaging is also available from
the m2e project (also outside of eclipse).
Just in case it is not known to everyone: the m2e project is in the
Incubation phase now. I don't know the status of their migration, but
perhaps some coordination with them would help here...?
