please open an enhancement request for this. Though I think that this is probably not not very common scenario and it won't be high priority for the project team. However we will be glad to take patch if someone would want to implement this functionality. Or you can prove me wrong by collecting votes on your enhancement requests.

The major problem with this is to how uniquely identify each index. For example, "central" index could actually point to different locations, especially after we will use mirrors configuration from Maven's settings.xml

 Eugene

Hi,
I am working on different workspace and all project is base on maven.Obviously the m2eclipse is the one of the most important tools for our eclipse.It's very delightful seeing the m2eclipse get more powerful day by day.Thanks for the m2eclipse teams.

But the m2eclipse use a repository index for every workspace, which resided at $WORKSPACE$/.metadata/.plugins/org.maven.ide.eclipse.So every workspace will update the index theirself ,but sometimes the index zip file is very large such as the central maven index which is 24M.Forther more maybe workspace1 had updated all the index to the latest,but the workspace2 still update the index again.So I think it's must be more useful if m2eclipse use global maven repository index setting instead of workspace level index setting.Do you think so?

Of cource ,To avoid repeat updating ,you can copy all the index from the updated workspace to the workspace that required updating .

Thanks for the m2eclipse teams again.
