Well, strictly speaking, it's entirely accurate. The XML contains invalid content because it contains an invalid namespace. The change to https is not correct. It's a broken POM. Using Validate XML on the POM will also fail, as will the Navigator, etc. The same issue has been raised multiple times before, eg. in https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3012 Of course, it would be good if we were as lenient as the underlying tools in cases like this, and at least offered to fix it. As we move to support Maven 4 it might be good to look at pushing more of this work into Maven or Maveniverse tools (Toolbox, DomTrip, etc.)? It might also be good if we could highlight the actual error when opening the XML.
