Hi Doug,

Ok, we will add the wizard back ASAP.

Mikhail, you missed the point. This wizard was used to turn non-CDT
projects
into CDT projects. It is absolutely required. How else would you do
that?

This has really caused me a lot of worry. You have removed a lot of
functionality and it is surprising people, in a negative way. We need to
make sure this kind of stuff is highlighted and addressed as much as
possible. Is there anything else that we should be looking for?
