Fred Bricon commented on JBIDE-15154:
-------------------------------------

I agree it'd make sense to use http://www.redhat.com/j/elqNow/elqRedir.htm?ref=https://www.jboss.org/download-manager/content/origin/files/sha256/16/16ea1e0cef29e94c0d795bbc4b4c431dcb14c4d10831dce5ff48194ff4fb2aee/jboss-eap-6.1.0.zip . This is not a direct download link, it still requires the user to accept some T&C, but it's much more straightforward than the current one we have.

[~burrsutter], [~pmuir] : the link is defined in stacks.yaml (doesn't require a JBDS respin), is it ok to change it?

> Following JBIDE-15053, I still don't like the fact that we point users to access.redhat.com instead of the direct link available at http://www.jboss.org/jbossas
> Go to Preferences -> JBoss Tools -> Runtime Detection -> Download and try to download EAP 6.1. You will be shown this link:
> https://access.redhat.com/jbossnetwork/restricted/listSoftware.html?downloadType=distributions&product=appplatform&version=6.1.0
> Click this and after you log in you will be shown this message unless you have a subscription:
> You do not have access to the requested software.
> Would it be possible to point to the link from http://www.jboss.org/jbossas instead? That one starts downloading EAP 6.1 immediately.
