Other IDEs let you point to any folder containing a POM and let you open it without any import process? Without adding any IDE-specific files to the project? That's what the previous mail in this thread is about. And do other IDEs let you map a target in your POM to a keyboard shortcut? Sure, let's work on making Maven in NetBeans even better. But let's appreciate its unique and special features, too. NetBeans is a GUI around the Maven command line. Sure, it can be even better, but let's stop this 'lacks some of the refinements' angle while we know that NetBeans is more refined in several areas, too. Gj >
