Following features are available:
- "Manage UpdateSites" link is added to "Manage Jenkins" page.
- You can list, add, edit, or delete an update site registered with Jenkins.
- When adding a new update site, you specify following fields:
- Disable this site
- Check if you want to disable the update site temporary.
