In fact most of this are only editor settings, preferred formattings etc which has nothing to do with the build per se. Eclipse has the ability to import/export all those settings in a XML file which is version independent. We should go this way and also supply similar setting-files for Idea and NetBeans. But forcing those settings via an internal Eclipse plugin config file is imho bad practice. The problem lies here. JGit, AFAIK, has very _strict_ rules, this is the corner case that makes sense to enforce via IDE. It spares time from everyone here. I like the maven-generated eclipse projects, but I think that we need the same level of service provided by the eclipse settings. IMHO, as always. -- Douglas Campos (qmx) +55 11 7626 5959
