Pallavi Rao commented on FALCON-1207:
-------------------------------------
Well, in Resource classes where JAX-RS is used or Workflow Engine where Oozie
client is used, the imports, if expanded will itself run into a page. That is
why I chose to exclude those packages.
The reason people argue one way or other is for readability and disambiguation.
With the IDEs we use, we don't we even look at the imports and any ambiguity is
caught during compilation.
So, if you both feel there shouldn't be an exception to the rule, I can remove
those too.
