The maven-eclipse-plugin has always assumed that the eclipse project
name is equal to the artifactId (unless you configure it otherwise) -
this isn't really an assumption, since this is the project name that it
writes to the .project file.

There does exist a corner case however - once you import a project into
Eclipse, Eclipse no longer cares about the name value in the on-disk
.project file. I suppose you had the relevant directories added to
Eclipse using manually created rather than plugin-generated projects.

If you delete the projects from the Eclipse workspace and re-import what
the plugin generates, it should correctly name them "hibernate-core" and
"hibernate-testing".

Just now.

Why would you be using such an old snapshot? Or a snapshot at all? Not
that I think it's the problem in this case.

Max.
