Re: Why is my Maven NB app bigger than my Ant NB app ?

Peter,

Can you check to see if your POM has the dependencies explicitly added to
it perhaps? If so, you could remove them, perhaps making JUnit a test
dependency instead, and if not added by you, then possibly a bug in NB
Maven Plugin Project support. If you added JUnit yourself, make sure it is
a "test" dependency instead. Depending on your findings it may or may not
be a bug to file against nbm-maven.
