Its It is a work in progress,   but hopefully by seeing the process of adding the extension we help feed innovation around WTP and JBI.

OK.. Lets start at the begining, we will basically create three plug-in projects,   these will be for the server definition,   the UI components of JBI and the JBI core components (which will cover creating deployables).

We will start in the UI project,   and do our first big step,  : we will declare a new type of module.   In our case this will be a jst.jbi.component (though obviously we could create a new module type for other things ie a BPEL module).
