Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-20100:
----------------------------------------
This report is not only about changing a label, but really a strong criticism about the
user experience with Early-Access. It's not the first time I hear bad things about it
and not the last one, so I believe there is a real effort to do in re-thinking the user
experience here.
My comment is an answer to the part of original request, which was clearly blaming the
filtering of early access "instead of filtered in between everything else", so
did the new user who reported this to me. I agree with the fact that filtering by default
is an anti-pattern of discovery, and that it would be much easier to actually show
everything to users.
By showing all connectors, Early-Access would definitely be more prominent, user would not
have to dig to discover things.
For the case when connectors aren't available yet, I'm not sure I understood
what's actually the user-story behind that. But I believe if we stop hiding things by
default, then people would immediately see the new Early-Access features when they're
available and we wouldn't need to highlight them when they're not.
how to make users aware of fuse and other tooling only being
available from earlyaccess?

Key: JBIDE-20100
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20100
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: central
Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen
Assignee: Mickael Istria
[~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 ?
