Rob Stryker resolved JBIDE-16886.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Rejected

> there really shouldn't be anything stopping us from allowing users to select servers without runtimes.

The new project wizard doesn't take servers. It only takes runtimes. You may think you're selecting "a server as a target runtime" but really you're selecting a runtime as a target runtime. 

There is no way to target a server to a project; only runtimes.  So it's not that your server isn't listed because it has no runtime;  your server isn't listed because the combo isn't listing servers. It's listing runtimes.

> Yeah, I know, this sounds kind of obvious - there's no runtime, so it cannot be selected as a target runtime. On the other hand, when you create archetypes from central, there really shouldn't be anything stopping us from allowing users to select servers without runtimes. What do you think about this?
