Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-18239:
------------------------------------
OK, so what I heard here was:
For Central:
* For JBDS: "move the JBT content that is currently in JBoss Central into the JBDS
update site, but leave it uncategorized; this makes it still accessible in Central but
*hidden* in the JBDS update site zip and therefore less likely to be accidentally
installed by a naive user doing an offline install"
* For JBT: "remove the JBT content that is currently in JBoss Central; this
duplicated content is already in the JBT Central composite (JBT + JBT TP + JBoss
Central)"
And for EA:
* Build a new update site (like what I had above in the PR, but containing ONLY the EA
content) and use that instead of the EA TP.
Aside: I think you mean "ad nauseum" or "ad infinitum", rather than
"ad libitum" [1].

Create new update site zip(s) (rather than target platform zip) for
JBT content needed for Central/EA site

Key: JBIDE-18239
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18239
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build, central, discovery, updatesite
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.CR1
Reporter: Nick Boldt
Labels: f2f2014
Fix For: 4.3.0.Alpha1
Attachments: JBIDE18239-proposed.png
In order to simplify the process for getting JBT features into Central (for JBDS) and EA
(for both JBT/JBDS), it's been suggested (by [~maxandersen], who doesn't like
opening JIRAs :D) that instead of a target platform which needs to be updated every time
we spin or respin a build, we could instead just produce an update site containing the
handful of IUs (cordovasim, arquillian, etc.).
We could further extend this idea to include all the things that currently are in BOTH
JBT or JBDS and in Central, such as TestNG.
These would be produced as new zips using the JBT aggregate builder:

Need to decide what to call this... "Extras" "JBT-not-in-JBDS"
"Shared" ...?
