Hi Do not use this old maven idea:idea plugin, but just open the pom.xml file in IDEA and it has maven support out of the box and loads the project nicely.
This is how I open any Maven project in IDEA. Also mind that loading all the Camel source code into IDEA is not a good idea, there is a lot of code. I usually open the component I need to work on instead.
