Description jrojcek 2008-10-30 15:07:15 UTC 
To create a project, the user needs to go through the project selection step. Frequently, users use just a very few project types, and they still need to go 
through the project selection step. The issue is even worse in small IDE bundles. For example in the Ruby, or Java SE bundle, there's just a very few project 
templates visible. Yet the user needs to go through the special wizard step.

We should consider integrating the project selection step with the "Name and Location" step for selected project type.

See the attachment for a possible solution.
