Well, the relevant bugs could "point" to them, but there actually is a 
download site ... which I mentioned in the wiki document. It is

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/patches/

Do you not see that? Or, am I misunderstanding your question?

Re: [wtp-dev] New and Noteworthy in releng: official patches






David,

Would we  provide these patches (even if they are official, maybe binary, 
and cover the complete set of components) from bugzilla?  That makes the 
most sense to me. 

Breaking new ground and setting new standards for all Eclipse projects 
everywhere ...    :) 

Due to two requests, I've created some build steps to produce "patches" to 
1.5.2. 
Of course, the need for these should be extremely rare, but when they are 
needed, 
I sleep better at night at knowing they are produced by a predictable, 
repeatable process 
that exactly matches the original build process and can be installed on an 
existing 
installation (and then be "updated" correctly in the next maintenance 
release). 

You can see some details, if interested, at 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/WTP_Release_1.5_Patches 

But, most people never need to know about this process or these patches 
... they are not meant to be "generally released" in the normal sense of 
the word. 
Some users or adopters might be directed to use these patches in some 
special 
circumstances, but ... in general, if not directed there, they should not 
be used. 

And, even though there is a new _patches stream, developers should 
not release anything to this stream. 

With this note, I am just keeping everyone informed with all the same 
information. 

P.S. Before you naysayers respond, yes, I am aware of the sad irony of 
presenting as "noteworthy" the "ability to create patches for really bad 
bugs"  ... 
but at least we do it well!
