----------------------------------------

> IMHO, "staging" and "nightly" are kinda the same thing.

nightly is "every night", it is not what we have. If you don't like staging, what about snapshot or latest?

> a) confuse people, especially since the URLs for the "jbosstools-staging-aggregate" sites will continue to be under http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/

What is confusing is having "nightly" for something that is not nightly, but that is run at least 3 times a day. I am also in favor of changing the URL.

Nightly is very meaningless and when it comes to make things simpler, using accurate wording is one of the first things to work on.

> b) lose the quality distinction between a site that changes hourly (fluid composite of components) and one that changes nightly (aggregate snapshot)

Ok, so what about "staging-composite" and "aggregate-snapshot" ?

> nightly is a very confusing name, that does not reflect at all what really happens.
> We should prefer using "staging" in variable, profiles, jobs, url... to make it clearer
> For instance,
> * jbosstools-nightly-staging-composite -> jbosstools-staging-composite
> * jboostools-nightly -> jbosstools-staging-aggregate
