[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-20100) how to make users aware of fuse and other tooling only being available from earlyaccess?

[Mickael Istria (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20100?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13085866#comment-13085866 ] 

Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-20100:
----------------------------------------

1) currently, we only have one connector existing in regular and early-access, so the result would be the same list as when Early-Access is enabled, +1 (the regular version of this connector). No bug change for a big benefit that early-access content is visible immediately.

2) In that case. I don't see how adding "connectors" to show that Fuse & others currently don't work with JBT/JBDS is helpful for users. Note that the user-story in the description doesn't mention at all the need for "advertising connector".

> [~jtyrrell] find it confusing when he cannot see Fuse and other earlyaccess features immediately on the install page.
> Some comments:
> "I install JBDS 8.1 and click on the JBoss Integration and SOA Development, but where is the Fuse tooling in that list."
> "<without earlyaccess> why doesn’t my screen shot tell me to use an older version of JBDS or something."
> Suggestion:
> "when I picked the Integration Stack a greyed out Fuse IDE thingy in the list of choices, and something like (Select early Access) to enable this feature."
> I'm fine exploring options to show early access features more prominently but would prefer we would not need to treat Fuse "special" so maybe we should have a "Early Access" section at the bottom instead of filtered in between everything else ? 
> and for any connectors that has additional/different features just add a "Extra features available in Early access " comment ? 
> But what to do when Fuse or others dont even have an earlyaccess out yet ? (like is currently the state for devstudio 9)
> [~crobson], [~aileenc] and [~lhein] got any suggestions ?
