Description Antonin Nebuzelsky 2009-05-07 13:44:24 UTC
Currently when a Kenai project repository is checked out by a user, it is scanned and if NetBeans projects are found in
the repo the user is presented with a dialog box with the list of these NetBeans project and he can easily open them
directly at the moment.

We have a nice Eclipse project importer in NetBeans. It would be very easy to recognize folders of Eclipse projects
during the scan we are doing, and offer a similar dialog box to the user listing the recognized Eclipse projects. If the
user chooses one of the Eclipse projects we would open Eclipse project importer wizard for him automatically and prefill
the path to this Eclipse project there.

I found several Kenai projects on kenai.com which contain only Eclipse projects and no NetBeans projects. I think this
small enhancement would be very useful for attracting more users from Kenai to use NetBeans for their projects.

So far I consider this as P1 RFE for next release.

This is not specific to kenai, but to all versioning checkouts.
