> "Create Project" should be above "Project Examples". 

Done. (jbcentral6.png)

> The "News" should also include the first 140 characters of the post and the posting date/author.

The posting date/author is already shown as well as a tooltip containing the complete post description. Will add the first 140 characters of the post.

> For "News" - I would like this split
> First section would be "News" and be from a special news/announcements jboss.org hosted blog.
> Second section would be "Blogs" and be from http://community.jboss.org/blogs/

Currently I am using the http://planet.jboss.org/xml/all?type=atom url and parsing it using the com.sun.syndication plugin (the Rome library)
What urls do we need to use to parse the "News" and "Blogs" sections?


I have added the following features:

- the Search control with a menu and Content Assist

!jbcentral4.png!

!jbcentral5.png!
- showing JBoss Central when the user updates some plugin
- created pom.xml files so that the central component can be added to the build

Now you can install/update the JBoss Tools trunk (http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/trunk/) and install the JBoss Central feature using the https://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbosstools/workspace/snjeza/org.jboss.tools.central.update update site.

> 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.
