In the past the release repo (releases/luna) has populated after each milestone with the content of all projects participating in the release. This content evolves over time, and then get purged right before
the release to only contain the released bytes.
As for the platform repo (eclipse/updates/4.4), it only receive content on the day the platform is released (so now in June 2014). Intermediary builds can be found at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Project_Update_Sites

Subject: [platform-releng-dev] No packages in Luna repos?
When I downloaded the latest nightly, the two p2 repos that were set up by default (
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.4 and
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna ) appeared to have no packages in them (verified with an older version of Kepler). I presume this is intentional – could someone clarify when there will be packages
there, and why they aren’t there yet?
Thank you for all your work,
Jesse
