Hi Denis, Just a side note, to be honest, I don't know which version of Eclipse you tried, but I must say they evolved correctly. With recent versions (indigo), it is much easier to import your maven project into eclipse projects and the sync works quite well. The git/hg integration is pretty nice too. But I agree that IDEAJ has always been my favorite IDE (I really liked the inspections and the simpleUml plugin), I moved to Eclipse only for economic reasons - and I miss too much features in IDEAJ community edition :) Agree with Vincent that with Maven, developers are completely independent of IDEs - and it's a very good thing. > I will simply use the Community > edition until I can afford a license for the Ultimate one.
