known issues

• (Eclipse): It still seems to happen sometimes that resource files like the application.properties do not get copied correctly into the target folders after changing those files, sometimes those resource files disappear from the target folder entirely. We are investigating the problem and will provide updates and workaround on issue #929 or M2E issue #1511.
