> For the Atlas project we need a clear approach to how we manage dependencies, and indeed the dependencies of other projects & users upon us.
> For example this should include
>  * A clear approach to how we support backwards (and possibly) forwards compatability of both our published external interfaces, as well as persistent data formats
>  * Agreeing approach to deprecation for when that might be required
>  * Regularly reviewing the version of dependent components, and having a strategy as to when/how to update (this includes both toleration of releases, and exploitation)
> I initially raised ATLAS-1849 to specifically capture the Java 8 dependency question which we could use specifically for java, but there are general principles we should discuss/agree/document too as part of making Atlas an enterprise ready component
