             Summary: eclipse p2 update site instead of old-style update site
                 Key: UIMA-2475
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2475
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Eclipse plugins
            Reporter: Steven Bethard


The UIMA Eclipse update site (www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site) is 
an Eclipse 3.3 (or older) update site. Since Eclipse 3.4, the recommended 
update site layout is p2:

I've been bitten by this update site issue because old-style update sites make 
it impossible to resolve build-time dependencies when building Eclipse plugins:

Could the UIMA update site be modernized to the p2 layout?
