Re: [m2e-users] Automated upgrade from m2eclipse to m2e?

Hi all,

We have implemented this in the latest RC of STS 2.8.0.  Now, when STS
opens, it checks the workspace for legacy projects and offers users a
chance to upgrade them to v1.0.  It only looks at the .classpath and
.project files.  .settings and launch configurations are not touched.

We're hoping that this will help users with their migration to v1.0.
If you want to try this out, you can install the STS release candidate
via update sites, see this document for how to do this:
http://download.springsource.com/release/STS/doc/STS-installation_instructions.pdf

Or, you can wait until 2.8.0 GA is release, which will be in a week or
two.  I hope this can help m2e users.  And please let me know if you
have any problems with this.
