[2] Side-note about update sites. As far as I know
there is no way for
building them in an automatic way (unless a hackish, tricky, ant-based
way). The Maven PDE plugin doesn't support it, and the artifacts
generated by the maven build cannot be assembled together in an update
site (at least not without a lot of tricky steps I am not fully aware
of). So basically the safest way to generate an update site is to do
it in the IDE and "scp -r" the result to the target location. By
putting the update site in the SVN things would be easier, because
once the update site is generated, a commit would publish it directly.
Then this is missing Maven plugin. I'm sure it can be done, but it's not worth our
effort, let
someone else do this.
