Maven

I don't see how it is easier to use Maven inside Eclipse. Old way is include J2EE libs from the tomcat runtime using Build Configuration, couple buttons and all of javax.servlet.* is there in the import. Start typing and all is good.

Maven>>Update Dependencies, search for artifacts with the keyword j2ee and you get this search box with a million j2ee libraries most of which are old versions for platforms I don't want or need. When I pick the wrong jar I just end up wasting another hour tracking down the right repo for the library I need. This is supposed to be better??????
