Description:
1. artifacts
in mevenide to synchronize pom with ide we need to display artifacts if they are not already added to ide (and vice-versa). for that purpose we need to have a comparison mechanism. so a equals() method is needed, but also other utility methods like (non exhaustive) : 

o myArtifact.conflicts(myOtherArtifact) and
o myArtifact.relaxEquals(myOtherArtifact)

f.i. conflicts would return true if same groupId and sameAritfactId but incompatible version, relaxEquals would return true if version is compatible, etc.. (just some quick thoughts)

2. directories 
although not as needed as artifact comparison it would be util to have utility to compare a Resource with a given path that might be relative or to ${basedir} or absolute.
