It's also interesting to see how much m2e cases and community has contributed to improve Maven compared to other IDEs. Then seeing such negative comments towards them, which are more about opinion than technical facts, seems really not encouraging to contribute more to Maven. Imagine if on the Eclipse lists we were just telling users who have questuon about Maven that they should use Gradle because Maven sucks, how much would you enjoy it? How useful would that be? It's the 2nd time in a short time-frame I find your comments discouraging, dismotivating and irritating. If I were not.committed in improving Maven for some other reasons, that kind of negativity in the community would make me give up contributing. You should probably spend time learning the value of a community and how to improve it instead of bugging it, that would be very profitable to Maven project.
