text on the customer portal says "This release zip was built with Eclipse 4.3.1, but
should also work with future Kepler or Eclipse 4.3.x versions. However, we recommend using
the Kepler JEE bundle"
what does that last bit mean?
is it even relevant?{quote}
What that means is that JBT 4.1.x and JBDS 7.x should be installable into any version of
Kepler [0]: R [1], SR1 [2], or SR2 [3]. You can also install it into any Eclipse 4.3.x [4]
if you prefer.
But the simplest solution, if you haven't already got Eclipse 4.3 / Kepler downloaded,
is to select the Kepler SR2 JEE [5] package because it includes pretty much everything you
need in a single download, rather than requiring subsequent updates or additional
downloads to complete the installation.

On the download pages for individual JBDS zips, we need to make clear the distinction
between update.zip and central.zip.
update.zip and central.zip Detailed Description both read: "It can be used to
install JBoss Developer Studio features into your existing Eclipse 4.3
installation."
Can the text [1] for update.zip be modified to: "It can be used to install JBoss
Developer Studio features into your existing Eclipse 4.3 installation if working
offline."
Can the text [2] for central.zip be modified to read something like: "It can be used
to install additional JBoss Developer Studio and third-party features available from JBoss
Central into JBoss Developer Studio if working offline."
