I'm talking about *users* - i.e. users installing Teiid Designer tools - how do they
work with Teiid 7 and Teiid 8 acroos their projects?
similar to how you don't change your IDE to work with Java 7 while you also have
projects that targets Java 6.

This is a problem that goes wider than the P2 repo. At the moment, TD 8.0 development has
gone down
this road:
TD 8.0 -> Teiid 8+ -> jboss 7+
Thus, upgrading TD features to 8.0 means users will have to upgrade to teiid 8 and jboss
7. They
will lose access to teiid 7 and jboss 5.1 existing installations.
We have had discussions in TD about trying to bundle both teiid 7 and teiid 8 jars but its
a scary
and very problematic solution.
Barry, can expand further on this if required.
