My question is about the differences between the M2 Eclipse Plugin and the 
plain old command line M2 version. What advantages does the plugin 
provide? I checked out  a project (Apache Tusqany) into my eclipse 
workspace. I have the M2 plugin installed - on the console I see:

*snip*


And basically nothing gets built.  If I run the command line version right 
against the tree directly, everything builds like a champ.  Am I lacking 
some eclipse setup to make this work? I simply checked out the code into 
the workspace as a 'project'. 

Thanks, 
Scott.
