------------------------------------------

Hey Michelle, 

That sounds good. Here is what we are planning to provide from a functionality point-of-view:

* Edit Addons
  -- Install Addons
  -- Remove Addons
  -- Build and Install an Addon

* Create a new project with Forge 2 wizard.
  -- Maven Java
  -- Maven Resources
  -- Maven Forge Addon

* Java EE
  -- Setup CDI
  -- Setup REST
  -- Setup JPA
    * New Entity
    * New Field
  -- Setup EJB
  -- Setup JSF
  -- Setup Servlet

* Reverse Engineer Database
  -- Creates JPA entities in existing Project or Folder

* Scaffold
  -- Setup
  -- From JPA Entities

*** Our BHAG is a Multi-step Wizard that will Step the User through creating a new project, reverse engineering a database, setting up necessary EE specs, and generating scaffolding.

However, this does not address how users will/should interact with Forge1 and Forge2. Here is what I would like, and what I believe you suggested in your comments:

CTRL+4 should default to Forge 2 out-of-box. The user may then utilize the Eclipse standard "Keys preferences" page to change that setting to Forge1. Via this same mechanism, they may also configure the key to allow them to select Forge1 or Forge2 each time it is pressed. Max can confirm, but I believe this is standard Eclipse config and should not require much implementation on our part.

We should not need to change the Forge preferences pane in this release AFAIK.
