> Yes.  You import them as Maven projects.  We will not be committing any .project, etc. files.  Personally, I feel this is bad form, and with m2e it is completely unnecessary.

Note, the reason we haven't done for all other jbosstools plugins is that m2e failed miserably in doing this when more than 5-10 plugins being imported.
That has changed the last year so we should probably be fine moving to pure maven import but should be tested since there are still often cases where you need
to import more than just one component.

> One problem you will encounter is that we repackage some jars in the tools, so you will need to run "mvn process-sources" which will download the required jar files.  (You may want to run "mvn install" prior to importing, just to make your life easy.)

I was interested in this one in context of jbosstools orbit work - I couldn't spot what kind of repackaging you are doing here - I just found flattening of xsd file layout. Could you point me to where that repackaging is defined ?
