I’ve noticed that in my PTP+RDT installations that the default
editor presented is the local editor. From there, I can start a remote
project, which kicks me into the remote C/C++ perspective…

If they don't plan to do any remote work, then
this always gives them the Remote C/C++ editor by default, doesn't it?
Do we want that?

users
I don't know that this is true. Especially in learning situations e.g.
university courses, on Mac or Linux an MPI program could run locally without
needing RDT.

I've been thinking about the features issue
again and have come up with a different plan. Originally I was suggesting that
we have three options: PTP, RDT, or PTP+RDT (plus some minor features). However
on further reflection, I think this is overly complex also, since in most cases
PTP users will also be RDT users.
My second proposal is therefore that we have only two features:
"PTP+RDT" and "RDT only". Although RDT has RSE
dependencies, so installing PTP would implicitly install some RSE plugins, I
don't think this is as much of a disadvantage as a confusing install process.
Also, this is only what will be installed from the Helios/Indigo update site.
Users are still able to choose to install any individual components from the
PTP update site.
Thoughts?
Greg
