Any progress ?

I would just like to clarify something upfront about our Maven support. Our Maven support does not change or cripple any M2Eclipse core features, what we add is compatibility with MyEclipse projects. To answer your questions about Maven from earlier in this thread:

- Maven menu is remove.
I assume you are talking about the Maven context menu. For all Maven projects you will see a "Maven4MyEclipse" menu which is identical to the Maven menu.

- In preferences the Maven option is also removed.
The Maven preference is found under Maven4MyEclipse and is identical to that offered by m2eclipse.

- In projects, Maven options is moved under Others instead of Maven.
I'm sorry but I could not follow this point. Could you please clarify? Are you talking about a wizard or a property page?

-"Checkout Maven project from SCM
Correct, we do not distribute the extra features, but these can be installed on top of MyEclipse by adding the extras update site:
http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-extras/
and installing the SCM feature for instance - you do not need to uninstall our Maven features for this.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the above. I would be glad to help you get to a state you need without having to uninstall MyEclipse.

Coming to your current situation - could you please let me know what your issue is?
Just to clarify a point here, if you uninstall Maven using our configuration center, does MyEclipse fail to quit then? (i.e. in the same session in which you have tried to remove the features and failed?) Or have you already removed the feature and now MyEclipse fails to quit?

Are you starting multiple MyEclipse instances after you close the previous instance, if so - do you get warned about the workspace being in use when you start a new instance or does it open to the right workspace?

Creating maven project - requires a professional license.
Import does not work - I don't see the option.

About process not dying, process seems to be running while I can still start a new one in same workspace.

Did we have resolution to this problem. I am also having multiple issues with ME 8.6 and our team is about to quit on it to. I am also trying to install m2eclipse and it keeps saying no repository found at http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e-extras or http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e which are correct urls. Please help or we will have to switch std. eclipse.

I am having the same problem. It does not appear that this has been resolved?
