Description Lars Vogel CLA 2018-05-23 04:25:40 EDT
I think the tips about the tips are a bit overdesigned. 

I suggest to remove:

- Extending Tips -> Tips of the Day should be end user focused
- Navigating Tips -> Really trivial
- There are no more tips -> Really trivial

I think 4 tips of the tips of the day should be sufficient.

I think the provider can go as soon as there is more content. Just a reference to the documentation should be enough.

This gives me this idea (experience level): Bug 534990

* Navigation tips are removed
* The "There are no more Tips" tip is a system tip common for all providers. Can't remove it.
* The Extending the Tip Framework tip will only show if people have installed bundle org.eclipse.pde.ui

>> EPP Blocker [1]
* Removed a "funny" tip action.
