Ahh, yes, Andrea - it was you who suggested to me to use the sbt plugin approach. I finally got around to it and this worked perfectly the first time, other than the scala unit tests. Thanks very much for explaining it to me.

Hi Rob, more-less I agree with you. Specifically, the first approach (here I agree with you) is very long but those are the exact steps you need to have a fully working environment, starting from scratch. I agree that are a lot of steps but trust me: it takes just 5 minutes. But the second approach should be exactly what you are looking for: checkout sources, sbt eclipse and import project... Maybe this latter should be positioned before the manual approach? I love Maven too, but unfortunately AFAIK there's nothing like m2e (with the wonderful "checkout as Maven project" add-on).
