Thanks for explanation on irc mickael.

The *Source* is here: 
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-download.jboss.org/tree/master/jbosstools/mars/snapshots/updates/earlyaccess.properties
in 4.3.mars and master folders.

What I don't grok from this is why we are now introducing yet another 
naming standard/convention when we in 
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3208
agreed on this:

mars/
    snapshots
    staging
    development
    stable

Why do we need a 2nd level under snapshots called master and 4.3.mars 
when that is already supposed to be covered by snapshots and staging 
(and eventually development/stable) ?
