Hi Uli,
Thank you I think this will work better. I just have another question
when you let the automatic update run how does it know which site to
check? When you run it manually you can select the one you want and
it does now appears correctly labeled, but how does the automatic
update know what site to use. If I install the stable version is
eclipse going to suggest updates from the nightly site? How does that
work? I have poked around and I don't think eclipse keep tracks of
where the plug-ins come from only where the update site are in the
feature so I don't see how this can work.
