Make google-cloud-logging work with cloud-trace-java

I want both stackdriver tracing and logging in my project and seems like there is no way to make both of them work on the same project.

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-java/tree/master/google-cloud-logging https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-trace-java

The issue is the library conflict for com.google.api:gax-grpc (and possibly others):

The latest com.google.cloud:google-cloud-logging:1.14.0 depends on om.google.api:gax-grpc:1.15.0 but the latest com.google.cloud.trace:trace-grpc-api-service:0.5.0 depends on com.google.cloud.trace.v1:grpc-consumer:0.5.0 -> com.google.cloud:google-cloud-trace:0.24.0-alpha -> com.google.cloud:google-cloud-core-grpc:1.6.0 -> com.google.api:gax-grpc:0.25.1.

So the logging depends on gax-grpc:1.15.0 but the tracing depends on gax-grpc:0.25.1 and they are not backward compatible (some classes are removed/renamed).

Is there any way to have a set of versions for these two libraries to work together?

1.7.0 - see https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-java#version-management for reference.

Also these two projects should be more coordinated and probably be part of the same repo since people would usually use both features of stackdriver in their products.
