No source bundles in update site
There don't seem to be no source bundles for groovy eclipse on the update site.
Ok, so the intention is that org.codehaus.groovy.eclipse.sdk carries the sources, but that feature isn't being built. It doesn't even have a pom.
Since 2.9.1 there have been some changes to the features that are pushed out to the update site. This happened before my time, so I am uncertain of the reasoning behind these changes. I will have a look at how JDT packages up "Eclipse JDT Developer Resources" and "Eclipse PDE Plug-in Developer Resources" and see if I can refactor the SDK feature into an "Eclipse Groovy Plug-in Developer Resources" that includes the source bundles. Last time I checked with the CI builds, they are creating the source bundles; they simply aren't included in any deployed features.
You can assign to me I will look at it tonight.

Eric do you know if there was ever a site for a version that did include source features since the tycho build? I fiddled a bit with the tycho source-feature generation, but I can't get it to include the generated features into the update site :(
Hmhm it's kind of what I feared: The catch is, using the (deprecated) eclipse-update-site allows to publish the jdt feature patch but not source features. We should use eclipse-repository, but that means complications to the feature-patch procedure...
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=497840 https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=389698 (comment 2 mentions that you cannot publish source features with eclipse-update-site)
