Hi Tim, I setup my project using maven car-maven-plugin (i.e. I looked at the sample calculator). To create eclipse plugin I ran the command
mvn -Dwtpversion=1.5 eclipse:eclipse and then import the newly created eclipse project into eclipse IDE. However, it seems that my eclipse GEP does not know how that those projects are geronimo J2EE projects. Can you start from the geronimo sample (bank, calculator...) and show us how to import those sample into eclipse IDE, run a debug with WTP local server....
