It works for me too, but it seems like kind of a hack. Other stuff
does change; almost every time I've run the update it has updated
other stuff, just not WOLips. So it seems to me that something must
be not quite right with the way WOLips "announces" it's updates to
Eclipse. But as long as we have a way that works, I'm satisfied.
thanks,
janine
