application name should not include version in Mac menubar
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBDS-704
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBDS-704
             Project: Developer Studio
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: installer, ui/branding
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.GA
         Environment: Mac OS X
            Reporter: Erik Mattheis


The Mac application bundle specifies 'JBoss Developer Studio 2.0.0.GA' for the CFBundleName property in the Info.plist. This is the property used to display the application name in the global menubar. By convention, this name should be succinct and generally matches the filename of the application bundle. I suggest changing this to omit the specfic version number (e.g. - 'JBoss Developer Studio').

Additionally, there are a number of properties in the Info.plist that should be set according to the guidelines laid out here:

<http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPRuntimeConfig/Articles/PListKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001431>

Specifically, CFBundleShortVersionString, CFBundleSignature and CFBundleVersion. I suggest using '2.0.0', 'jbds' and '2.0.0.GA', respectively, for the current release.
