Re: [jbosstools-dev] New JBoss Central "Early Access"

Some of you may have noticed we've been working to reorganize JBoss Central so as to be able to present Early Access features in Central, well before they're ready for GA. This is for two purposes: a) to allow us to include experimental third-party content in JBoss Developer Studio, like VJET or AngularJS, which would otherwise have to wait a couple years incubating in JBoss Tools. b) to provide a way to include pre-release Integration Stack tooling in a GA release of JBoss Tools or Developer Studio, rather than forcing those features to have to go GA before they can be accessed via Central. The new UI provides a checkbox at the bottom of the connector list in Central, which when enabled will show you three (3) Early Access connectors: * Eclipse VJET (the latest nightly build; formerly in Central as an "Experimental" connector) * JBoss Tools Arquillian (the latest milestone build; formerly only in JBoss Tools) * Angular JS for Eclipse Web Tools (the latest nightly/snapshot build; new) If you have questions or concerns, here are some JIRAs on which you can comment: * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16375 - UI for displaying EA content in Central * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17318 - Create Early Access site for JBT/JBDS * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17278 - Add AngularJS to Central EA site * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3056 - Provide Central EA zip for offline install? * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2745 - Support EA / Experimental / Incubating plugins in JBDS Here are some known issues: * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17493 - Duplicate certification ids not permitted in Core and EA plugins * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17425 - scroll bar refresh problem * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17427 - button text cut off * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17474 - button text cut off * https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2869 - 3rd party certification for JBDS 8.0.0.GA (incl.
