[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4859) Create new categories for JBT/JBDS update sites

[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4859?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12508517#action_12508517 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-4859:
-----------------------------------

1. Not sure I like "general purpose tools" - sounds like hammers and screwdrivers... or like this is the "couldn't think of a better name" category :)

2. SDK bucket can be moved to the bottom if we call it "ze JBoss Tools SDKs" or "zat's what I call an SDK!" Seriously, if we rename "Web, XML, and Java EE" to "Java EE, XML, and Web" we could call the SDK feature "Tooling Sources" and it would be listed alphabetically at the end. 

Or rename "Test and Performance" to "Performance, Profiling, and Testing" and then the SDK bucket could be "Sources".

3. Is "Maven Support' really better than "Maven Integration" ? Seems to imply there will be / should be something in that bucket other than integration plugins. 

4. Could we suffix the BIRT category with " (requires BIRT 2.5)" and the Maven category with " (Requires m2eclipse 0.9.9)" to further drive home the external update site dependencies?

5. is "All JBoss Tools" accurate if the BIRT, Maven, etc. stuff is NOT included? I don't have a better name suggestion; I'm just not sure it's kosher to imply that's the all-in-one feature category if it doesn't include the stuff which requires 3rd-party updates.

> Renamed to capture current thrust of issue: should we have more categories than we currently do on the update site? Expose more/less features? This is a branding/marketing/ease of use question, so for now I'm bouncing it over to Max for comments.
