Description Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-06-25 01:39:36 EDT 
Composite repositories such as http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/helios/ now show a "Not Found" error. It would be nice if the repositories had an index.html file with install instructions and a listing of the repository contents: http://thegordian.blogspot.com/2010/05/what-exactly-is-inside-that-p2.html
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-06-25 01:40:45 EDT 
We should also consider including "http://" in the repository locations on the download page to make copy and pasting into P2 easier.
Comment 2 Eike Stepper CLA 2010-06-25 01:42:18 EDT 
Feel free to ask me about the XSLT script if you have questions.
Comment 3 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-09-07 18:46:47 EDT 
Timed out. Deferring to next maintenance release.
