Well, I can ask a similar set of emotional questions.
Like, are you aware of the cost that is involved in production of the
free software you use? I've started this project in my free time, only
recently it was backed up by my manager at Sun, but still a lot of my
(and other commiter's) work is done in our free time that we could
spend on some other activities instead, like sport, family, games or
work that actually pays.
On the technical level, you are actually "crying at the wrong grave"
as we say here.. Unfortunately I've spend the 3.1.x releases (and
before in unreleased snapshots) hunting down for a maven embedder
binary snapshot that would actually work. None really do, but that's
not my fault. I've spent the last 2 years waiting for a stable 2.1
embeddable maven, it's not here and will not be for a while as the 2.1
version was renamed to 3.0 in maven sourcebase and is being heavily
refactored. Complain at dev@... please. I'd like to have
embeddable maven that works just as you. However the reality is
different. One has to do compromises, and the previous versions had
more severe problems with "LOADING" the project as opposed to this
problem which is only about building and can be workarounded by
building with command line tools.
As I said before I've given up on the embedder building right now and
for the next version (in nb 6.5) I will try using command line maven
whenever possible (when found on PATH).
Sorry if the upgrade caused trouble to you, it helped someone else.
