Re: [p2-dev] Asking for advice from p2-experts

[Andrew Niefer <aniefer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=277893
is an enhancement request against PDE/Build to start replacing qualifiers
on requirements instead of just includes.
With p2 I think this is becoming more
common than it was with the old update.

Well I guess I'll go with the latter because if I take this further the
includes will pop down even further.
