----------------------------------------
[~supriya.bharadwaj], the beginning seems a bit repetitive:

This article provides details for new and existing JBoss Developer Studio users who need
to configure a fresh install of JBoss Developer Studio or upgrade the versions of JBoss
EAP or JBoss Web Framework Kit in use.

And a bit later:

This article is intended for new and existing JBoss Developer Studio users who need to

A. Download, Install and Set Up JBoss Developer Studio and JBoss EAP using a Single
Installer
Note: If you want to install a different JBoss EAP version, you must first install JBoss
Developer Studio and then you can download, install, and set up JBoss EAP from within the
IDE as detailed later.
- this is not true. There is no such requirement that you must install JBDS first and
only then you can get the EAP binary. Instead, I would put it this way:

Note: If you want to install a different JBoss EAP version, you can either download it
from within the IDE (see B.) or install it separately and then follow the instructions in
C.

And now we get to the subject of this JIRA - instructions about the online maven repo:
I'm sorry, but I find it confusing. You have this:

Alternatively, you can use the online repository by selecting redhat-ga-repository in the
drop down menu in the Add Maven Repository dialog, in the Profile ID field. This will add
https://maven.repository.redhat.com/ga to your settings.xml taking care of all the
dependencies.

But this belongs to the instructions on how to configure offline maven repo, not to the
previous paragraph - Specify Maven settings.xml File Location. So at least put this
information in the correct place. But maybe it would be better start from the beginning
saying that there are two options - either set up a downloaded maven repo, or set up the
online repo.

Key: TOOLSDOC-667
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TOOLSDOC-667
Project: Documentation for JBoss Tools and Developer Studio
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Final
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Supriya Bharadwaj
Fix For: 4.3.0.Final
In TOOLSDOC-499 it was mentioned that we have a guide that explains how to add jboss
enterprise maven repositories, but it would be nice to also mention the alternative of
using the online repo.
From TOOLSDOC-499:

Alternatively, you can use the online repository: In the Add Maven Repository dialog, in
the Profile ID field at the top, select "redhat-techpreview-all-repository" in
the drop down menu. This will add
http://maven.repository.redhat.com/techpreview/all/ to
your settings.xml and that should satisfy the dependencies.

Something similar could be added in a box in this doc:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/1160993#ConfigureMaven
(or a similar doc for JBDS 9 once it's ready)
