Bug 497408

Comment 1 Christopher Guindon 2016-07-07 16:26:04 EDT

I am adding Anne to this bug because she's is way better than me for content editing :)

Anne, this is the text we need to change. We would like to update the text so that it's not specific to the Mars release.

<h1>5 Steps to Install Eclipse</h1>

<p class="lead">For the Mars release, we are introducing a new Eclipse installer.
This is a new and more efficient way to install Eclipse. It is a proper
installer, so no more zip files, with a self extracting download that
will lead you through the installation experience.  For those not into
installers, we still have the packages and zip files available on our download pages.</p>

What do you think?

Hi Chris -- look good, just a couple of suggested tweaks.

We've recently introduced the Eclipse Installer, a new and more efficient way to install Eclipse. It is a proper installer (no zip files), with a self-extracting download that leads you through the installation process. For those who prefer not to use the Installer, the packages and zip files are still available on our download pages.

I forgot that we've moved the packages to a new page:

I added a link to the last phrase:
