We should have an welcome screen and the initial idea for content are:
1. Getting Started (group)
- Overview - link to RHDS/JBoss Tools home page
- Viewlets and tutorials - link to page that contains links grouping by technologies
- Samples - link to page that describes where to get and how to inmport examples to RHDS/JBoss Tools
- Cheat Sheets - open RHDS Perspective and show Cheat Sheets View with RHDS Cheat Sheets
2. Create New (Group) can contains links to root wizards - Create JSF Project
- Create Struts Project
- Create Seam Project
- Create jBPM poject
3. Available Perspetives - JEE Perspective
- Seam Perspective
- DataBase Development perspective
- Hibernate Console
4. Related Links - links (some usefull links can be placed here): - Forums
- News
- etc
Other ideas?
I don't know exactly how welcome screens work - can there be more than one ?
Maybe we should have one for jboss tools and another for RHDS ?
But initially just create one for RHDS - should probably have its own plugin ?
If yes - should be declared to be in the build too.

JBDS-68 Seam Perspective should be shown after first start

added a comment - while we are working on this one then please also reorder the list of wizards so struts is in the bottom.
Seam should be at top.

added a comment - I found these icons for the wizards and perspective switch to be added to Welcome Screen.
Probably, they are to be reviewed.

added a comment - Yes, I just need an action to use it by standard Intro API way.
Currently I cannot find actions to create Seam Project and jBPM project.

added a comment - but the wizard doesn't need to implement this - you just need a new action that does it right ?

added a comment - "no support for wizards?"
Eclipse Intro API allows us to execute only org.eclipse.ui.intro.config.IIntroAction, org.eclipse.jface.actino.IAction, or org.eclipse.ui.IActionDelegate actions, but not the org.eclipse.jface.wizard.IWizard
To execute the Wizards we need to write our own action that implements one of the interfaces listed.
The same for openning the perspectives.
There were no special needs for us to implement IAction-like interfaces in the Wizards before. The same is for the perspectives.

added a comment - "Those urls" -> That content Max Andersen
added a comment - no support for wizards? is that something missing in eclipses welcome API or our wizards ?
Those urls does not exist yet so cannot be included yet.

added a comment - from victor:
Currently I'm working on the technical part.
Welcome view opens, shows a number of link items (as proposed by Denis) and opens some external links and runs actions (like "Create JSF Project). But it cannot start wizards (I'm working on it now), because there is no support for it.
I also need a correct URLs to proposed pages:
- Viewlets and tutorials (http://labs.jboss.com/projects/ ?)
- Samples ?
- Cheat Sheets ?
