P2 has been the state of the art since Eclipse 3.4; as of Eclipse 3.6 I think it is the only option.

I thought that change was moving to Eclipse 3.5?

I would like to get a time estimate for the two options:
- Did you get the "old" update site to work at all? Could we release 1.2.0 with that? (and then have to turn it off in a couple weeks time when we switch to P2?)
- I have the new P2 user interface on trunk now; what stands in the way is mistakes made when packaging the uDig application (or features point to things that do not existing etc...)
I would like to ask for help (Jesse are you around?) in packaging up uDig for release. We may need to go through creating the "mail" RCP application; and enabling it for P2 as shown in the exercise to understand what needs to be done.
What we get in trade?
- we have a P2 update site that we can use with Eclipse 3.6
- udig is also available as something from an update site; so you can download and install a small core and have P2 install the rest
- udig is packaged so it can be run as Java Web Start
