Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] update site URL

Hi David

I get some irritations from bad Update Site URLs; possibly because project A references project B and fails to track a rationalization of project B. Is it possible for one of your magic reports to detect bad Update Site URLs?

I'm not sure where documented either, but the general advice, I've heard, and agree with, is for _products_ to include update sites but not features. So, EPP Java EE I know likes to include some for webtools, mylyn, others? And its makes sense for them as a "product" as it usually would for other adopters products or internal tools.  
But, it's considered best not to include them in features, and if so, not every feature, but only some few main ones.

Hi all,

I recall a discussion a while ago about update site URLs but I don't seem to be able to find the reference. So, a couple of questions:

1. Should we be providing update site URLs in our feature.xml files?

2. If so, do they need to be in every feature.xml, or only the "main" features?

3. If not, can I remove them from all the feature.xml files?

There doesn't seem to be much documentation on this, but if anyone can point me to it, it would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg
