[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-3502) Instead of 4 zips, merge Central+TP and EA+TP into 2 composite repos for easier offline use (similar to what we had for JBDS 8)

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3502?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13099053#comment-13099053 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-3502:
----------------------------------

{quote}For CR1, we should change those composite sites so that they don't include BOTH a composite of Central+TP and a link to the same TP; so discovery.central becomes THREE child sites, not FOUR. {quote}
Whoops, I was wrong there. Only merged the TP into the update site ZIP, not the unpacked one. So those sites need to continue to be composites of 4 and 6 child sites, respectively. Reverted change to job config.

> Today the offline solution [1], [2] for installing stuff from Central or Early Access requires a pair of zips: the 3rd party content (target platform), and the stuff from JBoss Tools.
> [1] http://www.jboss.org/products/devstudio/download/ (Central Zip doesn't include the JBT stuff, just the 3rd party / TP content)
> [2] https://devstudio.redhat.com/9.0/staging/updates/ (both zips shown)
> We should combine these into a single, larger zip, such that the offline solution requires only a single zip and there's no confusion about what a Central Zip is.
