Rastislav Wagner commented on TOOLSDOC-645:
-------------------------------------------

My comments regarding Procedure 3: Add Maven Support to an Existing Project

- it might be confusing that in Procedure 1 & 2 we are creating maven project and first sentence of Procedure 3 is saying "previously created project that does not include Maven support. 
User might think that previously created project references some of those created in Procedure 1 or 2 and that they somehow does not include maven support already (it seems to me that [~mmalina] is confused by this)

-The whole Procedure 3 is using deprecated way of converting non-maven project to maven project. Current way of converting project to maven project is as follows:
 - right click on non-maven project -> Configure -> Convert to maven project
 - if project already contains some dependencies you will be asked if you want convert these dependecies also (so try converting projects with and without dependencies). 
 - see http://docs.jboss.org/tools/whatsnew/maven/maven-news-4.0.0.Alpha1.html and http://docs.jboss.org/tools/whatsnew/maven/maven-news-4.0.0.Beta1.html

Procedure 1 & 2 looks ok. I will however take a closer look on them later today or tomorrow.
