Should be fine to change.
I haven't noticed it, since I always run "mvn eclipse:eclipse" to
generate the project metadata, which doesn't get generated for pom only
modules.

Hi,
I just used the m2eclipse plugin for creating my workspaces in Eclipse 3.5.
Very nice!
But, I'm noticing a couple of inconsistencies, especially with the
openjpa-integration sub-project. It looks like examples, osgi-tests, tck,
and validation are all children of this parent openjpa-integration project.
But, only the validation pom.xml has the proper artifact id of
"openjpa-integration-validation". The rest of these children's pom.xml
files have artifact ids of "examples", "osgi-tests", and "tck". Thus, when
they are brought into eclipse via the maven m2 plugin, the projects are not
getting created with the correct naming convention.
If I am understanding the concept of openjpa-integration correctly, then is
it okay if I go ahead and update the corresponding pom.xml files? Since
none of these artifacts are "shipped", it shouldn't make any difference.
Just wanted to verify before making the change.
Thanks,
Kevin
