Description
Is better to have maven (plugin) that generates correct NetBeans project, not only ANT free form project:
1)Including information about what type project it is - ear, war, jar
2)Correct Source/Binary format by POM - right now it desn't generate correct source level!
3)Recursively resolved dependencies packages for project for compile, build, test
4)maven source tree layout(http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html) must accept also other source layouts like default NetBeans layout or any other what users/developers do . Maven can't be dominant at this point, because people cant always remake theirs projects by maven needs. If we compare rpm/yum, deb/apt systems with maven, then maven tries to be dominant - all things must be done this way how maven accept it, but deb/rpm conception says: "We accept developers(users) packages and we can build users sources, we don't need special layout for that!".
