Description Oleg Besedin CLA 2010-07-19 14:32:33 EDT 
The e4 update site contains a number of entries with questionable value:

- E4 Language Support
- E4 Resources
- E4 Runtime Features
- E4 Server Features
- E4 UI


What's the difference between "E4 Toolkit Model" and "E4 Tools"? 

The "E4 XWT" contains 11 entries. How the end uses expected to figure out whaty's needed?

I'd expect to see a feature tree along the lines:

- Tools
   - Live Model Editor
   - Visual Design Editor 
- XWT
   - XWT
- Examples
   - Photo demo
   - Contacts demo

I'll set this to RC3 - the consumers are expected to get tools from the update site and the current set of features is really confusing.

By the way, "XWT" acronym needs to be replaced with a descriptive text. What does it do for the person who installs it?

I've done the first major cleanup, reducing child repos from 21 down to 6

We still need to remove some features and/or categories that are no longer relative.

The build site will be clean for 4.0
