[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17117?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-17117: ------------------------------------ I wish sf.net was secondary, but we have a lot of zip downloads. I've tried to convince Max to drop the need for the Hibernate Tools zip, but it continues to be a popular download so we continue to provide it. THAT SAID... now that we have Akamai caching, we could look at caching files in /static instead of pushing files to SF.net at all. Might be worth doing some perf tests as both places provide geo-located mirroring to improve dl speeds. If we didn't need to bother pushing bits to sf.net, then ALL our bits would live on download.jboss.org (or access.redhat.com, for JBDS) and that would certainly make the publishing process simpler. ---- Re: renaming for sf.net: That's so that the files are consistently named with the same qualifiers Re: doing something at the same time as the marketplace entry: yes, I usually kick off the various scp/sftp/rsync processes in the background, then do the more manual steps in the foreground. The older versions of the release guides even stated "while the above is running..." to further drive home the difference between long-running background tasks and hands-on foreground tasks. Wherever possible I've tried to document that in the guide but there are other things we can do/simplify to allow even more parallel steps. Re: JBossTools-version.suffix/ folders vs. jbosstools-version/suffix/ folders, yes, we could switch to that model (note the change to lowercase too, to make [~maxandersen] happy re: JBIDE-16871). --- Re: webtools site: As I keep saying in other places, webtools CANNOT BE REFERENCED as a composite. It doesn't work because the server adapter wizard uses Eclipse Update, not p2. So... composite sites don't work. Or they didn't the last time I tried to change over to a composite. Maybe that's fixed now in Luna. Feel free to open a JIRA on that, and if it's NOT fixed in upstream, open a bugzilla to get it fixed there (most likely won't be seen until Eclipse 4.5 ( Mars ) development starts in summer 2014.
