---------------------------------------

> The maven pages are broken. Archetype parameters are no longer set to the advanced page meaning we can't click on finish early.

I have noticed that you have added a wizard for each project example in the Create Projects section.
Seven new wizards have been added???
That is not the correct solution because the project examples of the mavenArchetype type need to work the same no matter if they are called from the Create Projects section, Project Examples section or using Help>Project Examples.
The problem needs to be solved using a common wizard as required by this jira.

Which parameter, in which project example, is not set correctly after fixing this jira?

> In the wake of JBIDE-9776 and JBIDE-10140, it turns out that, in order for us to contribute 5 new wizards to the "New " menu under the Jboss perspective and in the "New project" section of JBoss central, "project examples" based projects should be created via a Wizard implementation from the get go. 
> Current project examples workflow involves :
> - displaying a form dialog : to display missing runtimes and let the user install/download the required runtimes
> - launching a workspace job, which in turn : 
>   * downloads the example
>   * does the actual project import (launches a wizard for maven archetypes)
>   * resolve quickfixes
> Ideally, all these steps would be part of a single wizard, spanning one to N pages (depending on the complexity/requirements of the examples). Everything contributed by the form dialog would be replaced by a wizard page, which would bring consistency to the UI.
> In other words, that means the project example dialog needs to be refactored into a Wizard, providing an API so that client plugins can contribute wizard pages. 
> I'm aware this is not a simple task to refactor the existing workflow to such an infrastructure but ultimately, that would allow us to easily contribute new project wizards to the IDE in a standard way.
> Current target is 3.3.0.Beta1. Snjeza, WDYT?
