Description Krishna Venkatraman

First time users and novice users of BIRT will benefit from being able to examine sample reports as they go about learning to design reports. This project looks at making a set of sample reports easily accessible by these users.

This should be documentation issue. Reassign.

One suggestion is to have a new view (lable as "Sample Reports") that lists a set of sample reports that uses the sample model DB.  User can select sample reports in this view to view the report definition, preview the report, and even edit the report if they want to.  Also want to allow user to copy sample report from this view to their project navigator (or to the new BIRT project view).

Fixed and checked it in.
Provides a sample reports view to list a set of sample reports, allow users to select sample report in this view to view the report definition, preview the report output screenshot, and export the report into local workspace to further examine.

Should these plugins be included in org.eclipse.birt.example.feature?
