Description Mark McCraw CLA 2008-02-20 19:05:34 EST 
The functionality of expandable artifact input sets is analogous to the Plugin Development Environment within the eclipse IDE. The process of adding a new artifact type definition can be thought of in the same way as adding an editor in Eclipse.

   1. The end user clicks the Configure menu and selects "Remove Artifact Type"
   2. The runtime configuration tool examines an XML file used to track metadata about artifact types that are known and presents the name and description of each to the user
   3. The user chooses the artifacts they no longer are concerned with inspecting for input
   4. The entries are removed from the metadata file, and the corresponding inspection components are removed from the tool's resources.

Reassigning to the project lead of Management Enablement for assessment to determine if these should be triaged to someone else or canceled.
