[Rob Cernich (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-15340?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12797718#comment-12797718 ] 

Rob Cernich commented on JBIDE-15340:
-------------------------------------

I agree with Max that it should be a standalone site with no links (obviously, I created the issue).  If there are dependencies that are external to Locus, I think those should be resolved as part of the target platform.  In these cases, the JBTIS target platform would include those external dependencies, which would be collected as part of the TP site.  In the case of JBTIS, the associated sites are: JBT core + JBTIS TP.  With that, the user gets everything they need to install from the JBTIS site, thus there is no need for adding any associate sites to Locus.  The onus should be on the consumer of Locus to ensure any external dependencies are resolved appropriately.

I think this is similar to how Orbit works.  I assume (yikes) that Orbit does not add any references back to the main Eclipse repositories (e.g. Kepler, Juno, etc.).

> The Locus p2 repo/update site should not include references to other update sites.  Currently it includes references to other sites, e.g. http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/juno/
