Hi Folks,
We are planning to use our own rest server implementation which is based on
dropwizard. But want to avoid rewriting the existing Java beans which are serialized into JSON. In order to do so, we would prefer hraven-core & custom rest service use same version of Jackson. The rest library uses Jackson 2.x, hence this pull request.
I realize this may not be compelling enough reason for hraven-core to upgrade its dependency, but I am hoping this is perceived as harmless change & gets accepted. Unit tests have passed & I am running end to end test at the time of writing this message.
