-------------------------------------------
From parent issue from Snjezana:
This means JBDS still doesn't accept third party contributions,
similar to what EPP packages like JEE does.
If we want JBDS to accept the third party contributions, the JBDS intro page would have to
include the following standard pages:
overview (JRebel, WTP, DTP, M2E, a newer Spring IDE contributes its extensions to this
page)
tutorials
samples
whatsnew
The JRebel's contribution is included in the org.zeroturnaround.eclipse.remoting
plugin that isn't included in the JBT/JBDS discovery plugin.
Spring IDE 2.7.2 doesn't contribute anything to the welcome page. Spring IDE 2.9.1
contributes to the overview page.
PMD and FindBugs don't contribute anything to the welcome page.
FindBugs 1.3.9/PMD 3.2.4 (JBT/JBDS uses this version) contains an invalid welcome.xml file
that suppresses opening of the Welcome page in JBT.
This file has been removed from FindBugs 2.0.0.
PMD 3.2.6 hasn't been branded correctly and there is no problem with opening the
welcome page.
JBDS Welcome screen should accept contributions from 3rd party extras
like JRebel, Spring, FindBugs, PMD

Key: JBDS-2086
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2086
Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
Issue Type: Sub-task
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen
Fix For: 5.x, 6.x
When third party plugins contribute a welcome screen they are currently not shown.
I think it would have value that we provide a way to have users get access to this
content similar to what Eclipse EPP packages does.
Is it possible to simply add a "More Welcome content..." button in case of more
welcome screens being available and switch to a page that has a grid layout of the
contributed welcome screen elements ?
Or maybe add a scrollable panel at the bottom of the welcome screen showing the
contribute elements "sliding by ?"
