Marcel Reutegger commented on OAK-9989:
---------------------------------------

bq. The alternative would be to move the whole subproject outside the Oak 
reactor pom (opinions?).

I'm in favour of moving the wrapped Guava library outside the reactor pom, or 
even a dedicated git repo? It will and should have an independent release 
cycle. There is also other candidate we could move: oak-doc-railroad-macro. 

bq. Can we generate Javadoc for the shaded lib? If so, should we?

I would not do this, but I'm probably biased because I'm using IntelliJ and it 
reads documentation from source files. So I'm happy as long as a sources jar 
file is published to maven central.

bq. Should we try to minimize the library?

Why could you do this? I see two effects if we minimize the library
- It will be smaller. I doubt size is really an issue.
- Limit further usage of Guava in Oak. I'm not sure if this is a goal.

Anyway, the question to me is not _whether_ we should minimize it, but rather 
why.

> Plan:
> 1. add wrapped Guava project
> 2. change all internal uses of Guava to use o.a.j.oak.guava.* (or replace by 
> JDK methods)
> 3. remove all Guava uses in public APIs (separate ticket)
> Note: IDEs do not work well with the shade plugin. In Intellij, you'll have 
> to disable the wrapped-guava project. In Eclipse, you even need to remove it. 
> The alternative would be to move the whole subproject outside the Oak reactor
