Remove "Import Applications" feature from Administration category menu 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GTNPORTAL-702
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/GTNPORTAL-702
             Project: GateIn Portal
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: User Interface
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0-CR01
            Reporter: Nicolas Martignole
            Priority: Minor


GateIn Portal has an "Import Applications" submenu feature that is used to import applications the very first time GateIn is used. Julien Viet told me that this is related to the JCR. 

I would suggest to remove this feature, that has to be manually triggered, and let the Portal adds any valid WAR package at startup-time. This would avoir the need to execute this task once for all. 

When we compare with Liferay 5.2, any valid web application is automatically available in the "Control Panel" Menu. When an application is not valid, but some of its meta can be extracted, the Liferay control panel will show the Portlet name grayed out. 

As a GateIn Portal user, I'd like to drop my WAR in the webapp folder, reload the list of available applications, and see all my Portlets, without the need to call this "Import Applications" feature.
