So we've been occasionally getting failures on
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen/201804111000/content.xml.xz and other similar sites over this past week (including this morning EDT). From the archive I see this has been an issue this past week so I guess you guys are doing something about it but I have some questions relating to setting up a cache that may save you a small amount of bandwidth.
Does tycho support some form of fail-over such that if we set up a cache for p2 and that server goes down we can fail back to the internet? I'm using maven+tycho and at one point it seemed like adding multiple p2 repos didn't really help for some cases of failure (the other repo wouldn't get tried), but this was forever ago so maybe i'm miss-remembering or the situation was very specific.
Also is there a preference for caching proxies for those of us who want to stay on the FOSS side of things (even if we get support later). I've used Nexus 2.x (still do) but it's p2 support wasn't great at the time from what i could tell; I'm looking a bit at Artifactory, is it worth switching? There's nexus 3.x as well
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
