This is why I have asked SOA tooling guys to coordinate more :)

I can say in past the intent/idea was simply that JBoss Tools layed out a set of milestones with appropriate underlying target platform and each component reported which version they would have included in it.

You should be 100% independent of SOA product release date since you aren't included in it yet :)

Does SY .5 matter to you ? Do you have a binary or logic hard dependency on it ? I assume possibly only the project creation is dependent on a specific artifact id or something ?

Yeah I hope so ;)

> Is there a plan for JBT-SOA 3.3 that details the feature set, along with some dates (even tentative)?

I've pushed for this to be materialized but ever since the SOA/Core split this have not been done. I wish we can get something running for JBT.next.
