Someone else had a similar problem with another IBM product, can't
recall the details.

One option is to just ditch the IDE embedded version control and go
back to the command line/GUI interface of the host version control.
That way you can have your hierarchical project structure.

Another thing to remember is that eclipse also has problems with
hierarchical projects.
And the IBM stuff is based on eclipse.  I know this process works with
Eclipse 3.2.2 +

The work around is to:
* checkout the root project (which contains all sub-projects)
* run mvn eclipse:eclipse
* refresh your eclipse workspace
* use the NAVIGATOR view and delete the .project file from your root project.
* File Import > and select your root project
* You should see your modules ready for import, if not then you forget
to delete the .project file

You will occasionally get out of sync between workspaces, so refresh
them after checkin/checkout and maven command line invocations.

You should be able to run Team > Sync at any of the projects, but it
will work if you only do this from the root project.
