That's a good point and an added bonus. And yes, that would include all
builds. Right now I take the zips and create the update site with a couple
of scripts. This will make that easier as well.

Yes, we'll see how my time goes, this might have to wait until later this
month. The idea though is to unjar the cdt.core.* fragments since they have
shared libraries that need to be on the file system directly to load.

Also, if you're not shipping the SDK or other features we're building now,
you'd need to remove them. Looking at the feature.xml files gives the list
of plugins you care about.

Thanks,
Doug
