Thank you Stefan to have tried, and successfully build an Eclipse updatesite ! 
(I admit I didn’t validated them functionally, I just looked at the files).

It reassures me that the scripts are still working, not only on my machine, 
even for someone not used to this very particular build system.

Considering the ongoing vote on IvyDE retirement, I don’t think we need to make 
them official Apache release artifacts. Anyone actually interested to have this 
plugin installed in his Eclipse should be able to be rebuild it. If in the 
future there is a newer version of Ivy, the situation will be the same.

Nicolas
