Yes but all this is interim while we're breaking the monolithic xwiki-

the XWiki Model cannot be easily moved in its own build module.
I haven't looked at the sendmail plugin so I don't know really the
extent to which it depends on core apart from the need for the plugin
API. I think I remember it has an api for using a document as a mail
template. So the best solution is to create an interface for all the
plugin needs on core and implement that interface in the core. That's
what I did for the new rendering module.
Thanks

We need to find a solution for this since we'd like to keep the
modules separate. This is actually our current effort: modularize
XWiki and move everything to components.
One solution for now could be to set a dependency on the last
released
version of core with a provided scope.
I'm not sure I get it. MailSender
depending on Core isn't the
problem.
The problem is Core depending on MailSender to get the glue code in
XWiki.sendMessage working. I'm not sure my solution works with maven. It
might still create a
circular dep but it's worth verifying it.
I'm not sure either if it's possible, I only recently started using
Maven.
But even if it is possible, it _will_ create a circular, and with
different versions it's even more nasty. Having to build a previous
version to build current version? It sounds more hackish than Windows'
leaked alpha version. It should be possible to just check out the
current version source and then build it on- or offline.
