Thanks Daz for input! Is the implementation of version-selection rules happening soon?
It looks like that we're getting to consensus regarding the API: dependencies { components { modules(moduleSelectorNotation) { detailsObject -> detailsObject.replacedBy(moduleSelectorNotation) } } } 1. I'm curious if there is a plan to align dependency resolve rules and version selection rules in some way? 2. Do we want to use an existing imperative API "dependencies.components.eachComponent" as a way to pass down the 'replacedBy' declarations to the resolution algorithm? E.g. declarative data 'dependencies.components.modules' would form one of the 'eachComponent' rules behind the hood. Based on Adam's feedback, I assume that we _don't_ want to do this. Cheers!
