Since the migrated content at https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform/blob/master/docs/Eclipse_Project_Update_Sites.md is mostly outdated, I 'inlined' the still relevant parts into the info toolt-tips and remove the link. |

I didn't find a migrated replacement for https://wiki.eclipse.org/Execution_Environment_Descriptions.
@trancexpress do you know a migration target for this?
Please also note that in JDT there also references to that old wiki page, that should probably be replaced.

I'm not aware of a ticket for this page. Maybe one makes sense at https://github.com/eclipse-equinox/equinox, though there is no wiki there yet.
Where in JDT is it referenced?

See https://github.com/search?q=org%3Aeclipse-jdt+Execution_Environment_Descriptions&type=code, for example in schema references.
We could create it and it doesn't sound too bad. Alternatively it could be hosted at JDT.
There is also https://equinox.eclipseprojects.io/launcher/execution_environment_descriptions.html, but from a brief read I'd say that the content is not identical, though there is overlap.

I've opened: eclipse-equinox/equinox#1257
I'll try to remember how the migration worked, when I find time.

Thank you.
In general I believe we shouldn't wait too long because the original wiki will probably be gone soon.
At the moment I was focusing on the php artifacts, but that should now be almost done.

I have a snapshot from when I was migrating JDT and SWT wikis, most (if not all) of the info on the pages wont be lost. I'll check soon though, comparing is easier when the Eclipse wiki is still up.
