+----------------ECLIPSE-------------------------
+If you use Eclipse for Jave EE, you can simply import the generated
+project into Eclipse. We've tested against Eclipse 3.6. Later versions
+will likely also work, earlier versions may not. 
+
+Eclipse users will need to install the following plugin components:
+- m2eclipse Core
+- Maven Integration for WTP (in m2eclipse extras)
+  Instructions for installing the maven plugins can be found here:
+  http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/installing-m2eclipse.html
+
+Ensure Eclipse is configured to use Java 1.6 as this sample uses
+AppEngine.
+
+In Eclipse, go to the File menu and choose:
+
+  File -> Import... -> Existing Maven Projects into Workspace
+
+  Select the directory containing this file.
+
+  Click Finish.
+
+You can now browse the project in Eclipse.
+
+To compile your project for deployment, just type 'mvn package'.
+
+--------------NETBEANS-----------------
+
+From the NetBeans IDE, install the Maven plugin. To do this, select Tools->Plugins, select Maven, click Install, and follow the prompts.
+
+Configure Maven in NetBeans IDE. To do this, select Tools->Options, select Miscellaneous from the top panel, then select the Maven tab.
+
+For the External Maven Home field, browse to your Maven installation.

+
+From the NetBeans IDE, select File->Open Project, and then browse to the location of the project you'd like to open.
