[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20609?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Radim Hopp commented on JBIDE-20609: ------------------------------------ And if I may reply to some previous comments: bq. As a normal user and as us wanting to make sure the software the normal user install I do not think it is valuable at all to have them see Early access by default. I thought that this is what we wanted. Typical normal user for us was guy, who wanted to install Fuse or something like that to latest JBDS. But since that stuff was EA, he couldn't find it. Wasn't that the reason which started the fuzz of changing Central? bq. Having a dialog popping up making them select between two options that looks exactly identical is not helping the user to understand he is installing something "special"; nor why he needs to make a choice. I think that this is just a bug... If you look at this screenshot http://i.imgur.com/yR2lkWO.png you'll see, that both connectors have "Certified" certification, which is wrong. One of those certifications should be "Experimental - Early Access". When this is fixed, we have to make sure, that desriptions of those connectors are descriptive enough, that normal user can make a decison. If that's not the case, we have a problem and we have to change those descriptions. bq. I'd recommend not rushing this feature into Beta1 until we can get a better/wider consensus from everyone. Thx! Correct. I can work with Mickael and try his branch from time to time and when we'll be happy enough, we can push it further. bq. Can someone remind me why the current situation is not okey now that we have the "advertisable" connectors where we can selectively make Fuse or other components showup with info on how to get them ? I agree with Michael here. Those "advertisable" connectors are useful when the feature is not available yet. But when it'll be available (as EA or normal connector) tha "advertisable" connector will be replaced by EA/normal one. User workflow will be like: Open central -> see advertisable connector -> "Oh... I have to wait". Next week... Open Central -> see EA connector -> "Finally it's here!" -> install. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
