Re: [wtp-pmc] release review draft slide deck ACTION REQUIRED

Hi,

Just noticed a small thing in those slides that surprised me.
It seems you are going to use sf.net to provide an update site.

In our experience that is a bad move since the web/http feed from
sf.net is not geared towards high volume loads of .jar file downloads.

We had a jboss ide updates site on sf.net and we had nothing but problems
with respect to timeouts and broken/incomplete downloads. (which eclipse  
update
mechanism btw. doesnt handle very gracefully :(

Just a warning ;)

note, sf.net's site is very good to host file downloads (because they are  
mirrored),
but the website only works best if its small (html et.al.) files its going  
to host.
An eclipse update site doesn't fall under a normal website IMO ;)
