While trying to comment the row <additionalArguments>--locale en:US</additionalArguments> to <!--<additionalArguments>--locale en:US</additionalArguments>--> I get Non-parseable POM .../application/pom.xml: in comment after two dashes (--) next character must be > not l (position: END_TAG seen
Running xmllint on the pom gives the same result. Could this be handled in NetBeans or should one just accept the nature of xml?
