We have always heard from developers that they wanted to see more items in the Java Project Explorer, especially build tool related files such as POM.xml, as well as resource files. Therefore, we have re-designed our Java Project Explorer to include additional file resources. For those developers who rely heavily in the Java Project Explorer view, now you can easily access these files directly. Note that this design is still in the early stage, please do let us know what you think, and leave your feedback at -java-pack/issues
