I am working with a couple of end-user that have tested a solution to platform using the nightly SDK build. The fix solved their problem. Now they are asking for the (j2ee) package containing this fix so I went looking if the EPP provides nightlies and I found the nighty link on the epp homepage [1] Unfortunately, the link is dead. Can you take look at this? [1] https://www.eclipse.org/epp/
Hi Wim. My solution for now will unfortunately be to simply remove the text. Even if we do a nightly EPP build, it will have the same content from platform SDK as the platform updates the simrel only on milestones and RCs. (With Markus' recent resignation of project lead of EPP there is no lead now, so there are lots of discussions on how to do this going forward. One of the proposals would be to have continual integration for simrel and EPP, but no one has signed up to do that work yet.)
I suspect the equivalent of what the link used to point to could now be https://ci.eclipse.org/packaging/job/simrel.epp-tycho-build/ this is rebuilt for each simrel contribution, so generally quite often in days leading up to a Milestone or Release Candidate build, but not so much the rest of the time.

Yes. I think we are fine if we can just let the people upgrade to the latest SDK from within the various packages. This is a manual process now. Maybe we can introduce an "activate nightly repositories" switch somewhere that would allow "check for updates" to update from the SDK/EPP nightlies. It would be nice if the EPP website is taken care of though. Are you an EPP committer?
I am an EPP committer. I am carrying the torch for 2020-03 M2[1], but we are looking at doing shift for EPP going forward. [1] https://www.eclipse.org/lists/epp-dev/msg05677.html

If I can assist you then let me know. I can make the website patch. What is your decision about the nightly link, chief?
I was going to relabel it to be something along the lines of it being continuous builds based on when simrel or EPP content changes. (may need some wordsmithing)

I fixed the webpage - but only in this limited way. There are lots of other out of date items that need addressing.
