          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hibernate
    Affects Versions: 4.3.1.Beta2
            Reporter: Koen Aers

             Fix For: 4.3.1.CR1


Hello,
I was attempting to install the Hibernate Tools for a quick demo but it somehow managed to confuse me.. I probably should know better, but I imagine this could represent quite some population out there.

I headed for the Eclipse marketplace (not the web page but the UI element within Eclipse) after a clean installation of Eclipse Mars update 1.
I search for "Hibernate Tools", and then it seems I have to choose between "Indigo" and "Helios".

TBH I didn't remember that those were Eclipse codename versions, so that's one problem.. I get in trouble trying to install either of course and it takes me a while to figure I need to search for "JBoss Tools" instead.. and probably reinstall my whole IDE to clean the mess.

Searching for "JBoss Tools" isn't great either BTW as the correct result is just third, which means it's not even visible without using the scrollbar..

I understand we want to push the "JBoss Tools" portfolio but ultimately I think we'd be better off by making sure that people get the right stuff when searching for "Hibernate Tools", as lots of people are accustomed to this name nowadays?

Thanks,
Sanne
