How does one get JAXB-generated sources onto the Eclipse build path under m2e/Indigo?

Under Helios/m2eclipse, when I generated jaxb sources they would be put on the Eclipse source path when I did an "Update Project Configuration".

This doesn't happen with Indigo/m2e (initial release of 22 June 2011). What do I need to do to fix this?

I'm using the standard maven-jaxb2-plugin, version 0.75.

In Eclipse go to "Install New Software" add the software site: http://bitstrings.github.com/m2e-connectors-p2/releases/

Select the "m2e connector for jaxb2"

Once you get that plugin installed the jaxb2 plugin should integrate correctly with the new version of m2e.
