Mat,
Count me as someone who will be VERY, VERY, VERY UNHAPPY ABOUT RESTRICTIONS!
Sorry for shouting, but it's hard for me to imagine how I can maintain
the services that I provide without the access I currently have. Just
as an example, I could not have developed this without such access:
https://download.eclipse.org/oomph/archive/eclipse/index.html
I assume there must be extremely good reasons for this change of policy,
no doubt related to ultra-secure security. I'm sure those reasons must
be excellent and that you, or someone, will be able to articulate them.
Please do so for the benefit of the community at large, given that you
feel the need to announce this to the community at large, rather than to
the "limited set of committers".
Perhaps a Bugzilla for such a discussion thread would be appropriate to
reduce noise levels on the mailing list.
Regards,
Ed

Hi Everyone,
As some of you may know we have traditionally provided a limited set
of committers with shell access to build.eclipse.org
<http://build.eclipse.org>, and all other committers having restricted
shells.
For the last couple of years[1][2] we've been working to reduce that
number as far as possible, and the time has come to finish the process.
Effective August 28th 2019 we will be transitioning all committers
that still have a regular shell to our restricted shell. You will
still be able to use SFTP and SCP to interact with the downloads and
archive areas(but we suggest a job on your Eclipse CI instance!)
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact
Webmaster.
-Matt.
