Hi, I've submitted a patch for the maven-idea-plugin that downloads and links the source code & javadocs jars for pom dependencies in the generated IDEA modules. The patch is in http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1190
For each dependency in the POM it simply tries to download the same dep. but with a classifier of "sources"/"javadoc" and if successful, links them in the ".iml" file (not failing if dependency has no sources/javadoc). I'm not familier with the Eclipse plugin - but I'm sure something along the same lines would be useful there as well (if not already implemented). And ofcourse, incorporating it into the idea's plugin would be cool too :) Cheers, Arik.
