Eric, shouldn't your concerns about m2eclipse be opened as a bug
for that project. It doesn't seem to be specific to a package?
I thought about it, but as I said the automatic downloading might be
desirable for people who explicitly choose m2e. It's a different
story for the EPP packages.
In any case, Pascal has said he's going to look into it.

When I ran the Java package with a

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=340312
Does that happen with other packages as well?
I tried the JEE package on OS X, but I don't think that
package includes m2eclipse.
I do remember from my experience with m2e about 2 years ago
that excessive console output was a major annoyance with it.
I also wonder if it's been discussed that including m2eclipse
in the Java package means that users will need to be using a
JDK instead of a JRE (last I saw, m2e doesn't work correctly
without a JDK and reminds the user of that every time at
startup). Forgive me if this was already discussed and I
missed it; I'm just concerned about the community side of
things if all of a sudden the Java package changes it's
pre-requisites and the intrusive UI that m2eclipse used to
alert about it.

I just ran the Java package on OS X and didn't get any Console
logging from m2e. However, it did kick off a long-running
background job that's downloading somewhat large Maven
repository index files. I'm concerned about this behavior; as a
user I'm not too happy about software downloading large files
into some unknown location on my machine without prompting or
asking first. This might be expected by users who manually
install Maven tools, but in the scenario where I just installed
Eclipse for Java Developers, I don't think it should be doing
that. I predict we're going to get plenty of
questions/complaints about this on the forums.
If m2e is really to be included in the most popular Eclipse
package, can at least the setting that controls this behavior be
turned off by default?
