Dependencies Are Important type of API
In my yesterday's post I promised to write a note once a week. However, things in real life are never like envisioned in planning phase. Today I stopped in my work and faced a little bit of confusions about wikipedia::NetBeans module dependencies. Some guys wanted the NetBeans Platform to start to depend on wikipedia::batik. Indeed this is not really desirable. If we want to the platform to be easily embeddable in other applications, it is not wise to grow their external dependencies over reasonable limit.
As a result I've started APITypes page and added there section about dependencies.
