    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-9368?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12634615#comment-12634615 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-9368:
-----------------------------------

Well, previously the hard-coded string was to https://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbosstools/workspace/snjeza/discovery/directory-3.3.0.xml -- IMHO this is at least a better solution because we can generate the resulting file and have it point at the latest discovery plugin, and because we won't end up forgetting to fix this and have people resolving against Sneja's workspace in SVN.

If having the plugin in the same feature is BAD, I can produce a new feature to wrap it so it can be published but NOT installed at the same time.

> We should look into either using the welcome screen, a single "dashboard" editor or possibly multiple views to provide a "single place to start" for JBT/JBDS users.

>     Make that feed customizable from plugin customization to allow JBDS to control it.
