Re: [higgins-dev] proposed dependency project

[Michael McIntosh <mikemci@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I suggest we split this into:

org.eclipse.higgins.dependencies.redistributable
and
org.eclipse.higgins.dependencies.nonredistributable

and have a maven file in the nonredistributable that populates it.

Then our projects can depend on the JARs/PLUGINs in the those locations.

Regards,
Mike
