Description Konrad Kolosowski CLA 2005-02-16 13:52:33 EST
The Update site manifest documentation lists attributes on feature as below. I 
believe the ws attribute being required is an error.

<!ATTLIST feature

This is a mass update of Platform Update bugs that have had no activity in three years. Platform Update was replaced in Eclipse 3.4 (2008) by a new provisioning system called Equinox p2. If this bug or enhancement is not already addressed in p2 please enter a new bug report against p2 (RT > Equinox > p2). If you still want to see this bug addressed in the deprecated Platform Update component, please reopen this bug. Patches welcome.
