Hi, Anyone who has every tried, or is considering trying, developing a Maven plugin, extension, or feature will want to have a look at our Eclipse Tools for Maven Development[1]. It basically allows you to run and debug anything related to Maven from within the Eclipse workspace without having to install anything in the local repository. No remote debugging sessions, no trying to fiddle around on the command line. You can debug a dynamically loaded extension, you ran run a Maven IT through its execution right into core. It's extremely handy and actually makes it possible for someone relatively new be effective with Maven and makes people with some familiarity even more effective. I haven't tried to develop a Maven plugin, extension or feature without these tools for years as I find it generally futile. If you do Maven development and happen to use Eclipse do yourself a favour and watch the demo.
