This seems to be a misconception. I let you try the following
scenario: <br>
At the same time<br>
* start "mvn clean verify -Dmultile-to-repo.includeSources=true" on
jbosstools-target-platforms/jbosstools/multiple<br>
* Import TP in workspace and click "Set as Target Platform", or
(often better) go to Preferences > PDE > Target-Platform,
select the new TP and click "Apply"<br>
The first one to finish is declared winner.<br>
<br>
From my place, IDE takes about 15 minutes to have TP loaded (I tried
3 times), whereas I started mirroring with Maven 50 minutes ago and
it's still running.<br>

That's true. But since mirroring takes more than 3 times more time,
then it's the same time to update TP in 3 different workspace. There
is no time saved by mirroring TP with Maven except if you're using
it in more that 4 workspace.<br>

I wish you would report it when it happens, so we can find out the
reason and hopefully fix it.<br>
<br>
<br>
So I confirm and insist that I still (and will probably always)
recommend using directly .target in IDE, because it's simpler and
more efficient.
