 * It’s not really a problem, more of a requirement.
    Your plugin needs WP-MVC to
   be loaded in order to work.
 * I guess you could try to bundle your plugin and wp-mvc together so wp-mvc won’t
   show in the plugin tab.
 * Try moving the content of the wp-mvc folder in your plugin folder (so you will
   have my-plugin/core) and add `require 'wp_mvc.php'` on top of your my_plugin.
   php file.
 * This won’t work if you have more than one plugin using wp-mvc though.

 * I did it and worked, Thanks.
 * I guess what is better because users don’t need install the wpmvc for run my 
   plugin. Is more easy

 * Glad it worked.
    But keep in mind that if someone installs wp-mvc (for another
   plugin) while your plugin is activated it’s gonna break the WordPress installation(
   Fatal error cannot redeclare class XXX). Removing the `require 'wp_mvc.php'` 
   should be enough to fix it. Worth throwing a note about it in your read_me 🙂
