Hitesh Shah commented on TEZ-3285:
----------------------------------

Questions: 
  - does the license/notice files need changing?
  - how is the npm shrinkwrap.json file meant to be maintained? How was it 
created in the first place? How should it be kept up to date?
  - dependency checks are now skipped - what happens if a new dependency is 
required? How would that get pulled in? How do we ensure that all dependencies 
are defined in the shrinkwrap json at build/compile time?

> All dependencies of tez-ui is having fixed versions. But the dependencies of 
> our dependencies are not. Hence a level down in the dependency tree, the 
> build might be looking for the latest packages. This affects the reliability 
> of the UI build.
> NPM:
> npm shrinkwrap create a separate json from the currently installed packages, 
> and ensure that the complete dependency tree is intact across all the build.
> Bower:
> Bower doesn't have a hierarchy and this issue can be avoided by locking on a 
> specific version for all dependent package in the bower.json itself.
