Hi, when using buckminster with a feature that contains a site to vist or discovery url, it seems buckminster is using one of these for "p2.mirrorsURL" in the generated p2 metadata. <url> <update label="%modelingUpdateSiteName" url="http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/updates/"/> <discovery label="%modelingUpdateSiteName" url="http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/updates/"/> </url> this is wrong, since the mirrors URL is used to mirror artifacts, and sites to visit is just a way to add a new URL to the UI.
Are you referring to the buckminster functionality to publish a feature as a p2 site? The intent is that this is a special feature written for the purpose of using buckminster to publish it as a p2 update site. Or is this from usage in some other context?

This is, like it or not, per design. There is no proper artifact that can be used when describing the repository itself. So we took the closest thing and made it possible to use a feature for that. When a feature is used for that special purpose, the discovery URL servers as the mirrorsURL.
Ok, thanks for your answers, i better see how buckminster works, now. I will change my 'build feature' to not include any discovery url.
