[jira] [Commented] (MNGSITE-401) WTF is a "software project management and comprehension tool"?

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-401?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17127580#comment-17127580 ] 

Herve Boutemy commented on MNGSITE-401:
---------------------------------------

it really helps understand the structure of the project, by defining dependencies
I know that automated graphing dependencies has lot momentum, but hand-written dependency graphs help a lot, like https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.6.3/

> This phrase, which we use in many places and which is copied and pasted into a lot of third party content, is meaning-free technobabble. I use it as an example of bad writing in my Tech Writing for Developers Course. 
> Let's replace it. I suggest "build management tool for Java".
