Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-16375:
---------------------------------------------
and I do not understand why you think installing just by id sounds very weak - that is
*exactly* what we want here. The connector id looks up in the relevant catalog and find
the updatesite + list of IU's to install from.
All the code that referes to ID's should not care wether he gets a specific version -
that is for the user to decide wether he wants the supported or the early access content.
Allow to extend Central extensions catalog with "Beta"
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
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 ...).
