1. As long as the paths are on the classpath when Jetty/RIFE starts, then we should be good to go right? As for adding/ removing/reordering participants, will this be necessary with the Jumpstart or should that be part of the bigger rife-ide plugin and the functionality for this plugin only allows for quick/easy RIFE development?
I think this should not be part of the first version. We should think about an easy editor for this and a consistent way to handle the configs. It`s more than one file.

I agree that the configuration is not needed at the beginning, however this architecture needs to be in place. The repository is where everything starts from and if you want to build an intelligent editor for RIFE, you'll have to start from there. So better include 'support' for it in the core project.

To 3. and 4. we can ommit to use this Feature of the WTP but we should think about the people that will develop for WebSphere, Bea and Tomcat and want to test on this plattforms.
How can we easily deploy / test on these plattforms ?

As long as you can package wars, it should be pretty easy to automate the deployment if the semantics are known.

I think the concensus is to create our own approach for handling RIFE in Eclipse instead of creating a WTP Server Type. I'll start a new thread on the new questions that follow with the new approach unless we change our mind.

Yes, IMHO it`s the best way for the first version. Jetty is the quickest for the development at this moment.

For me in the first Version it should provide a Wizard that:
1. asks me for the project name
2. ask if i want to have the jumpstart app there or only some template files
3. then create the initial structure.
4. create the Jetty instance as provided by the jumpstart package.

Anything missing ?

Sounds good for the most basic possible approach.

btw. is there a IRC Plugin for Eclipse ? We can connect them directly to the channel as step 5 ;)
