New Installers: Liferay Workspace and Liferay Developer Studio

Same as the previous 3.1 GA release, we have released two new installers for customers.  The smaller one is just for setting up a Liferay workspace and the other installer is the full fledged Liferay Developer Studio installer which installs Liferay workspace, blade, Developer Studio and comes pre-bundled with latest Liferay DXP server.

These installers will install the blade CLI program as well as optionally initialize a Liferay Workspace directory or generate token in your {user.home}/.liferay folder, the {user.home}/.liferay folder will be generated automatically if it doesn’t exist. You can visit this page to download the workspace installers.

This is the second ga release (See this blog entry for highlights of the 3.1.0 GA1 release.) It can installed on Eclipse Oxygen since we bundled buildship 2.1.1 and make it as a top level feature during installation.

New automate error report service has been made available now. Which would be easier for IDE/Studio to receive error reports and find out where our tools breaks in the field.
