a) "Note that deprecated eclipse-update-site doesn't consider packed artifacts.
"
So we'll have to migrate the remaining eclipse-update-site poms to eclipse-repository
(and may lose some of the post-processing steps we do right now in
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-build-sites/blob/master/aggregat...)

eclipse-update-site hqs been deprecated for a long time now. We need to get away from it.
That was part of the concerns for JBIDE-10596.

b) "This does not apply on a full repository. eclipse-repository can only consume
existing pack200'ed artifacts, not generate some. "
If I'm reading that correctly, I suspect that means that where today we can build an
update site consisting of locally built AND upstream artifacts, in future this will have
to be TWO builds: one to build stuff locally, then a second one to aggregate upstream and
the local stuff into a single repo w/ pack.gz artifacts. I hope I'm wrong here, as
that extra step would be a PITA.

Nope, it means that the update-site does not create the pack200'd bundles. It consumes
them from the artifacts build. Pack200 has to be enabled on eclipse-plugin and
eclipse-test-plugin builds.
Use pack200 to speed up download and install

Key: JBIDE-13266
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13266
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: Build/Releng
Affects Versions: 4.0.0.CR1
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 4.0.1.Final, 4.1.0.Alpha1
p2 provides the pack200 stuff, which offers a better compressions for jars, and then that
makes downloads faster when installing.
We should set up our repo to create the pack200'd artifacts.
