OK, I just concerned about whether we'll have the problem again with
other teams. We should at least track the dependencies.
What we are getting to here is that GFv3 dependsOn (webservices, CORBA)
dependsOn gmbal,
and none of these dependencies are in the main GFv3 repository. Some
don't use maven directly (and don't want to).
Now, I think I can manage to keep CORBA using the most current Gmbal
(once I get the gmbal-CORBA integration into
GFv3), but the more external dependencies we have, the more difficult
this gets.
