Provided means you expect it to be provided at runtime, like
servlet-api for a Struts app, which is provided by the Servlet
container. For Chain, I think both of those are truly optional. You
only need them if you're using the JSF or Portlet related parts of
commons-chain. I think it should be <optional>true</optional> inside
<properties> for m1.
The Maven devs are resistant to changing released poms. For a while
they were doing it but it seemed to cause more problems than it
solved.
Thanks in advance for fixing the Chain project.xml file. :)
No problem, thx for the info - servlet was marked as "provided" - that
was requested by Carlos (probably) when he was generating the m2 pom
after the 1.1 release - anyway I've set servlet, portlet and myfaces
to "optional":
