> (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>
> See also https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4033, which can be done in parallel to this task.
