> m2e    vs   m2e-wtp  ???

m2e = the core plugins that enables Maven to read and understand pom.xml files 
and then configure Eclipse based on these pom files. m2e also has an extension 
mechanism to allow other plugins to add explicit support for specific maven 
plugins. m2e is developed at eclipse.org.

m2e-wtp = an extension/plugin for m2e which provides explicit support for 
Eclipse WTP project and configures WTP based on the maven war, ejb, ear etc. 
maven plugins found in pom.xml. m2e is developed at jboss.org/tools and made 
available via the Eclipse Maven marketplace.
