> > Thanks for pointing me at that. I think I need to take a serious editing pass across that. I also see some mismatches in the API, but I need to think a little more deeply about that. I don't think this PR needs to wait for any of that to happen though. > > Sure. Be aware that the dependency in the page I pointed at is the _resolver concept_, not the _POM concept_. The _dependency_ described here is more linked to the _dependency coordinates_. So don't think the terminology is wrong, it just cannot be mapped directly to the resolver API which is more complex. Fwiw, I think this page will have to be adjusted to a more fine grained terminology. People do refer to "my project dependencies", or "this artifact dependencies" and actually refer to the transitive artifacts which are dependencies of a given artifact / project. In the POM, you have (potentially incomplete) pointers to dependencies, and those are _dependency coordinates_, which will be turned into actual _dependencies_, once the resolver has _collected_ them (_resolution_ is the process of actually _downloading_ the artifacts). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
