Hello World,

m2e 1.7.0 is now available (tagged releases/1.7/1.7.0.20160603-1933 in git), as part of the big Eclipse Neon release. It's available from most Eclipse Neon distributions but can also be installed from [1]. Although it's not guaranteed, it *should* be compatible with Eclipse Mars.

It is a minor release mainly focused on stabilization. 49 bugs and enhancements were fixed[2] during that release, the most noteworthy being:

- Autocompletion for directory/file based properties in the POM xml editor

- Support for Smart import of Maven projects

- Support for plugin embedded archetype catalogs

- New API for overloading Maven POM properties

- Initial support for Java-SE 9

More complete release notes are available at [3]

For this release, 14 Gerrit changesets were merged, from 7 external contributors. So, special thanks to:

- Nick Boldt

- Mickaël Istria

- Gábor Lipták

- Carsten Pfeiffer
