Allow to extend Central extensions catalog with "Early
Access" stuff
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-16375
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16375
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: central, discovery
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Fix For: 4.2.0.Beta2
In order to make it easier for people to consume some "Beta" extensions from
JBT or JBDS release (such as installing a Beta of JBT-IS on top of a JBT release), it
would make sense to have Central allow users to select some catalogs in a UI entry such as
"Include Experimental stuff" to show additional catalog entries.
Either this could be a single catalog with the experimental content being annotated, or
it could be 2 (or more catalogs) which have different quality levels.
The Central UI will need to give feedback on the quality level for a given entry
("supported" or "experimental" or ...).
