[jbosstools-dev] Why does update/kepler now point to Alpha2 ?

[Nick Boldt]

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/kepler/compositeArtifacts.xml 
now points at the last RELEASED target platform, 4.30.5.Alpha.

Alpha2 (M5 + Jetty 8) and Alpha3 (Kepler M6 + Atlassian, etc.) won't be 
linked from there until were release JBT 4.1.0.Alpha2.

Sound good?
