The embedder was whipped together for an m2 plug-in for Eclipse and it still needs quite a bit of work. The embedder should allow a mode that completely syncs with an existing installation or work completely independently. As I ran out of time I just took the easiest route in a lot of cases. > Perhaps you had a different view of how to integrate Maven into IDEs? There is a component for the embedder and Eugene/Dmitri (authors of the m2 plugin for eclipse) have found many issues already so keep adding them in and I'll take care of them. > I heard about the embedder, but I could not find it in the central > repo, so I assumed it is too alpha...or is that the preffered way? > (rather than accessing the components directly) I haven't release it yet but looks like I'm going to have to as Milos (netbeans mevenide fellow) is looking for it too.
