I have multiple plug-ins that I have put in a common area outside
eclipse, so that I can share my plug-ins via links between multiple

CDT
GEF
InstantiationsGUIBuilder
jautodoc
maven
PDT
pydev
QuantumDB
subclipse
WST
In 3.3 these were "extension points" and the update process would
correctly put new updates into their correct external location
with 3.4, the update process ignored my custom locations and threw
everything into the eclipse plugins and features folders.
yuck!

Although it is different from what we're used to, p2 is a lot more
capable. I think if you take the time to educate yourself about how it
works, you'll find a way to accomplish your goals:

Hope this helps,
