I suppose the question here is... how are our users upgrading?
My *impression* is that they're just unzipping everything into a new
build. How else would they upgrade manually between a CR1 and a GA aside
from unzip it all over again?
If they're just unzipping everything again, then we're not forcing them
to downgrade a small part. They're just unzipping a different one.
Is the update site functional between point releases? Between beta / cr1
/ ga?
Yes they are for JBossTools - and even if they were just unzipping they would have the
same prolbem.
