I would change this link to something like

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/trunk

and keep it the same for ever :)  That means you can alway get last nightly build through this update site.

So link

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/3.0.0.Beta1 means nightly build from branch 3.0.0.Beta1

After we decide it is time for release, release nightly build should be changed to build from TAG instead of branch update site URL should be the same. We usually have several release build candidates and build is triggered manually.

so for QA it will look this way:
1. http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/trunk - they can install last build form trunk and it will picked up even they have any update site for previous version
2. http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/${release.number} they can get update for up coming version built from branch/tag
3. After release built from tag promoted to release it moved from

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/${release.number}

to

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development for Alphas, Betas and CRs
or
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable for GAs

For 3.0.0.CR1 it will be here

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/3.0.0.CR1

Will we have a http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/ for the current trunk ? (i.e. one that matches the nightly builds ?)

Hi guys/gals,

Tomorrow (17th Oct) we will branch for Beta1 so make sure all critical features for Beta1 is in trunk by tomorrow.

Denis/Rob: Please make sure we got a Beta1 nightly build setup for both JBossTools and JBDS (in addition to the trunk builds) so everyone can focus on the part they need to work on.

Planned release for Beta1 is 31 October.
