> document hard and soft requirements
> -----------------------------------

>                 Key: MNG-6791
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6791
>             Project: Maven
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Documentation:  General
>    Affects Versions: 3.6.2, 3.6.3
>            Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
>            Priority: Major
>
> The docs at https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Dependency_Version_Requirement_Specification say:
> 1.0: "Soft" requirement on 1.0 (just a recommendation, if it matches all other ranges for the dependency)
> [1.0]: "Hard" requirement on 1.0
> However, I don't think anywhere do we actually explain what a soft or a "Hard" requirement is. If someone can clarify this for me, I'll update the docs accordingly.
