The beauty is that if we manage a repo, there is less PITA in maintaining build, and it
is easy to create target platform that only relies *only* this repo. Then we are sure that
those target platform contains the bits we decided to put in the repo.
We manage bits in a repository, and we can provide subsets of this repo as target
platforms.
Yes and you are talking about *different* things than what Denis, Rob and I are referring
to.
You want to make it simpler to create the updatesites used for mirroring - great; you can
do what you want there (more or less ;)
What we are talking about is *guaranteeing* that Tycho/p2 resolves the same version on
each developers/jenkins machine. just using an updatesites does not do that.
Plus we are talking about having an easy way to feed the target platform into eclipse so
it can be used for testing/development - feature/updatesites does not do that either.
