You can probably use the dropins/ folder as it accepts the same
structures as the old-style "extension locations." See
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started#Dropins
By the way, I find creating update sites pretty easy. The IDE does most
of the work for you. What, specifically have you tried and what is
inconvenient about it for you?
Hope this helps,
Eric
