Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-4245:
-----------------------------------
I'm not a big fan of telling people our work is crap. (random crashes? where's
your confidence?)
Plus, by keeping these pages entirely generic, I don't need a new variable to house
the additional description... or three template files in place of 1.
The link in the last line to
http://www.jboss.org/tools/download/installation covers
everything they might want to know about N/N vs. Dev/M vs. Stable/R; we could revise the
copy to explain better why they might want to click there. I thought "more
information ... release types" was enough, but I'm open to better phrasing.
replace update sites' index.html w/ more useful information about
how to install, quality of release, etc.

Key: JBIDE-4245
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4245
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Build/Releng
Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA
Reporter: Nick Boldt
Assignee: Max Rydahl Andersen
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.0.1.GA, 3.1.0.M1
(2009-04-27 12:38:57) nickboldt: the html in the update site is entirely irrelevant and
could be replaced w/ a pointer back to the install instructions
(2009-04-27 12:39:24) nickboldt: I doubt anyone ever uses it to download individual
feature jars, so it's kinda misleading
(2009-04-27 12:39:53) nickboldt: for me the only value it provides is seeing the build
timestamp and hudson ID so I know how recent it is
(2009-04-27 12:42:37) |xam_at_hibernat: nickboldt: for the updatesite index.html then I
agree - the actually listing of files with links is pointless for download; BUT having the
page showing this is the url for Development|Stable|Nightly and that you can use this by
adding the updatesite to eclipse and alternatively download the zips directly from
<point to links > and here are some more info <point to the install docs>
