 	<h1>m2eclipse is moving to eclipse.org!</h1>
     <p>After years at <a href="http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/">Codehaus</a>,
     we're moving to get closer to the eclipse.org projects we work with,
     like PDE, WTP, and AJDT.
     We are staying at Codehaus for one more release, but we'll ask everyone
     to come over once we have everything set up here.</p>

     <p>Before we get caught up in details, now is a good time
     to step back and talk about why we think bringing Maven to Eclipse could be very fruitful.
     If you see more benefits or potential risks or if you'd like to participate,
     let's talk about it (see <a href="#contacts">below</a>).
     </p>

 	<h2>Why Maven and Eclipse?</h2>
 	<p>Maven helps Eclipse build, and Eclipse helps people use Maven.
 	With Maven, Eclipse will build more kinds of software projects both in the IDE
 	and on the command-line, e.g., in a process of continuous integration.
 	</p>
     <p>The <a href="http://maven.apache.org/">Apache Maven project</a> describes
     Maven as a "software project management and comprehension tool".  Maven is used in
     thousands of open-source and commercial software projects to simplify building
     and understanding software of all stripes.  Maven is great at doing command-line
     builds, understanding project structure and relationships,
     and sharing code in binary repositories.  It's easy to write and configure a
     Maven plug-in for a given build task, and hundreds of plug-ins are available.
     </p>

     <p>The Eclipse IDE is great at supporting interactive software development, with
     incremental compilation and instant UI access to dependencies and definitions in
     everything from code to metadata.  But command-line builds are hard to configure,
     libraries are often managed manually, and many languages,
     programming models, and build processes are not supported by Eclipse as they are
     by Maven (because it is a much harder problem to write good UI support).
     </p>

     <p>They can help each other out.
     Eclipse can make it easier to work with Maven, and Maven can make it easier to
     support complex projects using different programming models.
     Eclipse editors make it easy to find and maintain project information, and
     the Eclipse Java tools can use the Maven dependencies like any others for compiling,
     searching, content assist, etc. (even in derived project types like WTP and AJDT).
     Maven conventions and software repositories make it easy to manage library
     dependencies, to assemble projects, and to build from the command-line in a
     process of continuous integration.  All this helps both developers writing software and
     plug-in projects implementing software build or assembly processes.
     </p>
     <p>Hence, we have something for everyone:</p>
      <ol>
      <li><em>Maven Eclipse Tools</em>, the UI for developers using Maven to make software</li>
      <li><em>Maven Eclipse Frameworks</em>, the API's for Eclipse plug-in's using Maven to
        maintain project information and to deploy software build and assembly tools</li>
      <li><em>Tycho</em>, Maven support for building Eclipse and OSGI artifacts on the command-line</li>
      </ol>
