I'm gonna shamelessly quote Max Andersen's response to the exact same question on
the m2e's mailing list :
m2e(clipse) = the core plugins that enables Maven to read and
understand pom.xml files and then configure Eclipse based on these pom files. m2e also has
an extension mechanism to allow other plugins to add explicit support for specific maven
plugins. m2e is developed at
http://eclipse.org/ eclipse.org.
m2e-wtp = an extension/plugin for m2e which provides explicit support for Eclipse WTP
project and configures WTP based on the maven war, ejb, ear etc. maven plugins found in
pom.xml. m2e is developed at
http://jboss.org/tools jboss.org/tools and made available
via the Eclipse Maven marketplace.
So far, it's not settled yet if JBDS 5 will
embed m2e / m2e-wtp directly. But even if it's not, an "extras" update site
will allow you to install these plugins easily from JBDS 5.
