I said there should be better IDE integration in general. I only singled out NetBeans in the examples because that's what I use the most. If Roller moves to Maven instead of ant then I hope that goals can be set up to easily deploy, debug and profile using the IDE's Maven plugin. Maven might actually be better suited to separate the different components but I thought that recommending a few changes to the existing build system would be more reasonable in the short term.
