Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-18833:
------------------------------------

Long blarg short:

Max wants an URL with *updates* in it, /updates/nightly/luna/ [1]  to point to a composite of the latest nightly *builds* for the luna stream, because the stable URL [2] we've had for ages is too much effort to type or remember. And sees no problem mixing the concept of builds and updates in the same URL. So I've recreated a /luna/ one that points to the correct nightly builds folder. Hooray!

[1] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/luna/
[2] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/core/4.2.luna/

And we need a more detailed list of process/steps to perform when moving the new master branch to a new Eclipse baseline. We forgot this step, as well as the step of updating composite install and p2.director jobs to use Mars.M3 instead of Luna.SR1/Luna.R. Probably missed more stuff too.

I personally feel that the creation of these symlinks is pointless, because they're just redirects for the lazy. What we really need is a page listing all the URLs for target platforms, builds, update sites, etc. in a single place, a la https://projects.eclipse.org/list-of-projects. I believe this was raised at the F2F but I can't recall if there's a JIRA opened for this. [~maxandersen] do you know if there's a JIRA for that? Can you link it from here?
