[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-20100) how to make users aware of fuse and other tooling only being available from earlyaccess?

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-20100:
---------------------------------------------
afaik we already have that page - it is shown when you download developer studio and
contain text like:
"Note: You will need JBoss Developer Studio 8 to use the stable Integration Stack, or
you can use JBoss Developer Studio 9 with an Early Access version of the Integration Stack
components.
The Integration Stack for JBoss Developer Studio is a set of plugins for Eclipse that
provides tooling for:
JBoss Fuse Development
JBoss Business Process and Rules Development
JBoss Data Virtualization Development
JBoss Integration and SOA Development
JBoss SOA 5.x Development
"
suggestions to make that better are welcome but I think separate issue from this.
Please note that this content will be outofdate very fast and we are busy enough making
sure JBoss Central here is working and correct.
Adding a manual step of page that needs to get updated would not be great - so if it needs
more detailed info than the "note" I fear it would just be outofdate.

[~jtyrrell] find it confusing when he cannot see Fuse and other earlyaccess features
immediately on the install page.
Some comments:
"I install JBDS 8.1 and click on the JBoss Integration and SOA Development, but
where is the Fuse tooling in that list."
"<without earlyaccess> why doesn’t my screen shot tell me to use an older
version of JBDS or something."
Suggestion:
"when I picked the Integration Stack a greyed out Fuse IDE thingy in the list of
choices, and something like (Select early Access) to enable this feature."
I'm fine exploring options to show early access features more prominently but would
prefer we would not need to treat Fuse "special" so maybe we should have a
"Early Access" section at the bottom instead of filtered in between everything
else ?
and for any connectors that has additional/different features just add a "Extra
features available in Early access " comment ?
But what to do when Fuse or others dont even have an earlyaccess out yet ? (like is
currently the state for devstudio 9)
[~crobson], [~aileenc] and [~lhein] got any suggestions ?
