Loic,<div><br></div><div>I think there are arguments for either approach, but I think way more important than doing this is to keep things the way they are and work on documentation. It's probably the single most important thing to help projects become "standard." I, for one, would really appreciate seeing more documentation and samples for Cowboy rather than more code changes.</div>

</div></div>As a counterpoint, consider how riak is packaged, 25 deps, 19 of which<br>
we maintain.<br>
<br>
In practice, we lock all the dependancies at release time, people<br>
running HEAD might run into some temporary issues with out of sync deps,<br>
but its not a common problem we see.<br>
<br>
You're also conflating erlang packaging with erlang *library* packaging.<br>
I agree that erlang is often packaged extremely badly by distributions,<br>
but if cowboy-acceptor is a version-locked dependancy of cowboy, there<br>
should be little chance of them getting out of sync.<br>
