 Description  « Hide
Since the xpp library (last I checked ) is optional, it would be nice to have it set that way in the Maven2 POM.

Hi Michael,

as you may have noticed, Xpp3 is the only non-optional dependency. Although you're technically right, Xpp3 is our prefered and recommended XML parser that is automatically chosen instantiating a vanilla XStream. Therefore we do not consider this dependency as optional. You may still exclude the dependency on your side, but this already means, that you know what you are doing.

So I would keep this as non-optional dep (at least as long as no other committer objects).
