Hi Siarhei, Thanks for the tip. I haven't explored the WTP project before, only read about it very briefly. I will try this approach, even though it will surely force me to change a bit of my deployment and modules to comply to some rules I have read on the site.
One question though, why did it put the m2eclipse plug in aside? Woudn't it help in the process? Are they incompatible? WTP projects and M2Projects projects I mean? I've been using the m2eclipse for some time and aside for a few bugs i got used to work arround i'm quite happy with it. Your experience (good or bad) would be appreciated to help me weight my options.
