Maven makes some things much easier by standardizing many of the build settings in a way that is IDE agnostic. However, every IDE seems to provide its own proprietary "Actions" configuration for defining the "Actions" or "Tasks" that can be run on a project. E.g. "Run", "Debug", "Build Jar", etc..
It would be nice if there were some well-supported metadata standard for this that was supported by all IDEs. Does anyone know if such a standard format exists - or if there are any groups working on such a format? Steve
