eclipse plugin - no effect from the external tools goal?

Hi all,

have been doing my first tests with maven, most of it has been working 
as promised so I'm assuming the following is probably caused by some 
misunderstanding from my part.

when testing all goals from the eclipse plugin to learn what to expect 
from them I can't see a noticable effect from running the external-tools 
goal:

the end of the command looks promising:

     [copy] Copying 1 file to 
c:\ot\out\projects\eclipse\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.ui.externaltools

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 6 seconds
Finished at: Fri Oct 10 23:55:35 CEST 2003



but inside eclipse there is no difference to the list of external tools 
(allthough if I look into the mentioned file, it sure is referencing 
loads of maven stuff)

What am I missing?

(fwiw: I'm running eclipse 3.0M3)
