[News.eclipse.technology.mylar] Re: Mylar install and update site

[Christian Campo <christian.campo@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Eugene,

I think I understand the concept of Update Sites. However I think on the 
Mylar page (http://www.eclipse.org/mylar/dl.php) it says that i.e.
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/mylar/update-site/e3.3 is an 
Update Site. That should allow me in Eclipse 3.3M5 to enter that same 
URL into the field for a new remote update site and Eclipse would 
install Mylar right from there. It worked in the past and doesn't now. I 
believe the link is broken.

To test what is going on I used a Browser, but I am aware that this will 
not install any software.
