[m2eclipse-user] A new maven project creates an eclipse .settings folder

[Todd Thiessen]

More specifically, org.eclipse.jkt.core.prefs

Why does the plugin do this?  I was playing around with creating a new
sample project from an archetype.  When I looked at the project
settings, I noticed that my JDK compliance was set to 1.4.  Is their an
option to not create these eclipse settings so that my project could use
my workspace settings?  Or at least can I specify the values to use when
the plugin creates these eclipse .setting files?
