Need help with m2eclipse 0.13 + war:exploded

[Todd Vierling <tv...@duh.org>]

I'm using m2eclipse 0.13 from the /N/ update site, trying to achieve
one of the "holy grails" of integration: Google App Engine + Scala [+
Lift, optionally] + Eclipse with m2e. Solving this problem would be a
win for a whole lot of developers out there (and it might also make
more "vanilla" WAR packaging easier to describe, too).

Environment: Eclipse 3.6.2, Google Plugin for Eclipse 2.3.0beta1,
Scala IDE Plugin "wip-backport" nightly with 2.8.1 runtime, m2e 0.13
nightly as noted above.

I have all the necessary dependencies in the POM, including a
dependency on a sibling project, and compiling is just fine. To get
this to package up, I know I need a war:exploded layout (since GAE's
deployment will do its own archiving of <project>/war).

However, I don't know what to do to get the dependencies (the JAR
dependencies from the project's POM and the plain classes from the
sibling project) into war/. I note that the copy-dependencies goal is
explicitly disallowed with an error in m2e 0.13, so I'm not sure what
is now responsible for getting the dependencies into the WAR. Further,
I don't know how to tell Eclipse to make Maven actually do that at
some point before I deploy (since the Maven Builder is no longer
configurable at all in 0.13).

POM follows. Whether this is a plain Scala or Lift project doesn't
really matter; the dependency chain is the only real difference.

I should really have said that even Scala isn't at issue here.
Basically, it's GAE with Google Plugin for Eclipse + Eclipse with m2e
+ getting dependencies into place. Once the dependencies properly get
into war/, it really applies to any GAE project inside Eclipse using
any JVM language.
