Description Greg Watson CLA 2011-05-30 09:23:04 EDT 
Check for updates seems to cache the results of the check. If no updates are found, then it does not seem to matter if the update site changes, it never finds any updates. If I restart Eclipse then it immediately finds the new updates.

Is there some reason to cache the results and not check every time the user asks?
