> In my war project I put the displaytag-1.0 dependency wih the scope runtime. When I make my war Maven2 include some others dependencies like commons-logging, this is normal because these dependencies are declared in the repository side displaytag-1.0.pom, but Maven2 also include in my war the dependencies which have the <optional/> in the repository displaytag-1.0.pom like xwork-1.0.3.
> I have included a example to explain what I mean. Just run mvn package, and look at the war created. Compare the jar included into this war with the displaytag-1.0.pom, you can find it at this url :
> http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/displaytag/displaytag/1.0/displaytag-1.0.pom
> So, my question is : Is this normal ? if Yes, I would like a explanation of how work <optional/> tag. 
> Or Is this a Bug ?
> thanks,
