Your words are bit of a contrast to the instructions "build the easy way"
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/BuildingInEclipse#HBuildingWithM2Eclipse28Easy29

As a maven rookie i'm just looking for the easisest solution. So I 
followed the above instructions 'like a slave' and it seemed to work. 
Except that the workbench looks like a mess - lots of Java errors and 
Maven errors - see screenshots above.

I haven't yet installed maven - only the m2eclipse plugin - should I do 
that - and if so is the most recent version ok ?
What is the recommendation ?

Rookie question #2:
Once i install maven manually and run 'mvn install' from command line as 
you say - will the IDE reflect all
the results of the build process - that is after refreshing all the Java 
errors that became apparent after importing from maven would disappear ?

Rookie question #3:
Is it advisable to just copy and paste an .m2 repository to another 
workstation (other VM) to save there the long repository download times ?

- im still learning -

thanks
Andreas
