No? I works for me. Here's a working example:
bin.includes = feature.xml
category.id.buckminster.tools=Buckminster Tools
category.members.buckminster.tools=\
org.eclipse.buckminster.galileo.builder.feature,\
org.eclipse.buckminster.galileo.builder.source.feature
category.description.buckminster.subclipse=A collection of tools based on Buckminster Technology

Yes, but I think it requires a buckminster.cspex that removes the dependency to the source feature. It will be included
in the build anyway due to attributes that references the source feature generation in the original feature. Not optimal
and room for improvements of course, I just haven't gotten that far yet.

All right, my fault. I was working with Buckminster r10104. I upgraded to
r10157 and now my source features appear in the update site. :) Now I'd like
to selectively _hide_ some source features in the update site, but that's
something for another day.

I tried that, but it seems that removing the dependency alone is not enough.
I'd also have to alter the groups and actions. However, I'll postpone that
effort until after my vacation. ;-)
Thanks,
Achim
