    Description

      As discussed somewhat in JBIDE-4859, it seems like we should nest our categories in our update site. So, instead of having lots of sibling categories for the various tools in JBT alongside a sibling "All JBoss Tools" category, the latter should be promoted to a parent category for the others (dropping the "All" prefix). For example:

      • JBoss Tools
      • SOA Development
      • JBoss ESB Tools
      • Drools Core
        ...
      • Data Services
      • Hibernate
      • ModeShape
      • Smooks
      • Teiid Data Tools Connectivity
      • Teiid Designer Design-Time
      • Teiid Designer Runtime

      BTW, IMO having features in multiple categories blows. I don't like seeing this with other Eclipse projects either. Just my 2 cents.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.

          • Blocker - To be worked above all other priorities. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is very high, has no workaround, or the effort for the change is comparatively low. Issues that may be very publicly visible and could generate significant media attention may also drive a higher priority.
