Templates and Working EPP Configuration File Examples

There are some currently used configuration files available via Git. Note that this file is only used for the website content! The content definition is done in two projects, one of them is the branding plug-in, the other is the root feature that contains the .product file for the actual build.

git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/epp/org.eclipse.epp.packages.git

New Package Community Website

The new EPP Package Website will be driven by additional data from the EPP config file. See EPP/Packaging Site with a description of the proposed additional information.
