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

PRs have been merged, and the output of the process with suggested improvement seems to be consistent and installs correctly.
I'm keeping this Jira open to track potential changes required in the process of promoting from staging/ to development/

> Currently, the site we use for staging are organized much differently from what will be shipped to end-users. This results in making tests against staging behaving differently to how release will believe, so making tests confusing, error-prone and useless.
> We need to rework the staging process so that its output is similar to what will be the output of a release:
> * updates/staging/luna , compositing
> ** target-platform
> ** JBT core
> ** Central TP
> * earlyaccess site (location still to be decided?), currently 'http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbtearlyaccesstarget/4.40.0.CR1-SNAPSHOT/REPO/
> Those sites are the one that need to be used respectively for jboss.discovery.site.ul and jboss.discovery.earlyaccess.site.url in ide-config.properties
> Then the process of releasing to development isn't much more than a _cp -r_ and some _sed /staging/development/_
