I can make this build as part of every nightly, and we can choose to update it with every milestone (as we do for http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/indigo/)

Please give me a detailed list of features (and/or plugins) you want exposed on that update site. Is it all of these?

{code}
org.jboss.tools.jmx.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.archives.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.archives.integration.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.serverAdapter.wtp.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.server.rse.integration.feature
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.jmx.integration.feature
{code}
