[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-17808) Identify which installed IUs are from Early Access vs. supported/tested versions

[Mickael Istria (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17808?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12991386#comment-12991386 ] 

Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-17808:
----------------------------------------

Those are not necessarily features (they can be any IU), so they may not have necessary branding info, copyright, icon and so on... But for sure, in case there is, we can show more details.
The "Features" section is indeed what I'd like the page to look like, and in case IU is a bundle, it would simply show a <no branding available> text.

> [~maxandersen] brought up a good point on a call today:
> we have no way from within JBDS of identifying which installed IUs were installed from Early Access vs. those what were installed from Central or another "supported" location.
> Thus we need some sort of UI to list installed IUs that are "Early Access".
> This could be... (brainstorming now):
> * a text file with the list of things installed from Early Access (features and plugins)
> * a set of asterisks added to the Help > About dialogs when browsing for installed features / plugins
> * a way to filter the plugin view (Help > About) to show only EA content (or exclude it)
> * ... ?
