Thanks for confirming that my
inexperience took me where I should not have gone.

Well, I wouldn't expect m2eclipse to help you with Tycho
projects.
If you have a Maven-based project, like a web application,
that you're developing in Eclipse, then you already have
dependencies and various goals in the pom.xml. The m2eclipse
plug-in will help you leverage all of that Maven pom.xml
information within Eclipse. It exposes the pom.xml dependencies
to your Eclipse project in a way that the Eclipse IDE can use
them so that you don't have to set up the libraries again inside
of Eclipse. It installs its own builder so that it can run
Maven for you. etc.
Tycho is almost exactly the other way around. If you have an
Eclipse plug-in that you're developing in Eclipse, then you
already have dependencies and other build properties encoded in
the Eclipse PDE files like MANIFEST.MF, build.properties, and
feature.xml. It *already* works in Eclipse, and you don't need
m2eclipse's help. The point of Tycho is to help you leverage
all of that Eclipse PDE MANIFESET.MF and other information
within Maven. It translates the dependencies from your Eclipse
PDE files and presents them to Maven in a way that Maven can use
so that you don't have to set up all of the dependencies again
inside of a pom.xml file. That way, you can take a
functioning Eclipse plug-in, feature, and/or product and create
a headless (command line) Maven build without repeating a bunch
of stuff in your pom.xml files.

Where is the documentation that can tell me if
I can use M2 with Tycho or should use a Maven
instance outside of an Eclipse workspace?
Where is the current
version of Maven that is supported by Tycho
listed?
