I'd really love to have an MRM for the repo that m2e runs inside the

start).

That is what we do. Eclipse/STS is eclipse with everything that you need
already installed.

Ah, I wasn't aware that STS exists.
Could become useful at work, we're using Spring for webservice and transactions there, with options for using more modules; better Maven tooling would be most welcome there.


We use the Nexus repo on our server for browsing oher repos and hosting
our own and carrying non-maven jars.

None of my guys can use DOS command line Maven.

Okay.

If you want to do a SKype session, I can show you our Eclipse and Maven
Repo. Would that help?

No Skype here. I don't trust it near my private data.
I use it all the time but perhaps Microsoft has got a copy of everything!
Could setup a Saba Meeting if you like. It has a Java client.


I found STS in the marketplace, and it lists all the plugins that it comes with, so I installed Spring IDE Maven support. Unfortunately, I'm not seeing any additional Maven-related facilities. Is it in some other plugin? (I want to avoid installing plugins with abandon, Eclipse is already slow enough as it is.)


You should have all the Maven that m2e provides.
We just got rid of Eclipse and loaded up the full Eclipse STS.
It probably has stuff we don't need but at least it all matches and with one download and install, I am fully upgraded. We were each losing so much time on each Eclipse upgrade trying to find all the plug-ins that we used and dealing with incompatible plug-in version We were never sure that everyone had the same configuration of plug-ins, as well.

The only thing that seem to remember that we no longer have is a graphical representation of the Maven dependency tree which was a fun way to work on dependency cleanup but was more for fun than real need.

You can install Eclipse and Eclipse/STS at the same time since they can both use the same workspace . This allows you to test out the full version before you make the switch if that is what you decide.

You might find that it starts slower than a bare Eclipse but once it is running, they are probably both equally slow!
