Hi All,

I think it is a great idea to use Dependabot and code scanning in GitHub.
In the HBase project we already have Dependabot enabled and it helps a lot
with identifying issues and opening PR-s to fix them.
Maybe we can ask in the ASF Infra Slack channel or open an INFRA Jira
ticket.

Best Regards,
Dávid
